PHANTOM OVERVIEW Chamber Phantom Slab has six cavities for thimble ion chamber measurement. The diameter of each cavity is ¾". Solid acrylic plugs are included to fill the cavities for simulated patient thickness. One solid acrylic plug is drilled for the ion chamber of choice. A bone equivalent plug is included for precise simulation of high dose gradients. Acrylic Phantom Slab is a solid acrylic slab to provide simulated patient build-up material. Four 2 mm steel balls are imbedded in the slab as reference markers for 3D orientation of film on TPS. Lung Phantom Slab is an acrylic slab with two cavities for simulated lung inserts, two cylindrical cavities for thimble ion chamber placement and a set of two cedar lung inserts for lung simulation. Dimensions: Height (6 slabs) Width (each slab) Length (each slab) Weight (6 slabs) Cavity Diameter 18.00 cm (7.09 in) 30.00 cm (11.81 in) 45.00 cm ( 17.72 in) 22.7 kg (50.0 lbs) 1.90cm (3/4")
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS MOSFET Diode/TLD Slab, SeeDOS Code No 70608, has 9 channels for MOSFET diodes or TLD chips, which can be placed at any point in a field for point dose measurements. The small channel size was designed not to adversely affect other measurements so this slab can also be used as a solid slab for increased patient thickness. MOSFET diodes are isotropic for dose measurements from any angle. Acrylic Phantom Slab, SeeDOS Code No 50062, is a solid slab to provide simulated patient build-up material. Four 2 mm steel balls are provided for use as reference markers for 3D orientation of film on TPS. Carrying Case, SeeDOS Code No 50064, has extendable handles and wheels for transport from room to room. Case also protects phantom during shipping.
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
Full Information on the use of this phantom for Dose Verification is available, please click here on the detailed pdf information sheet A summary of the steps involved is as follows: Dose Verification A. Create treatment plan based on patient scans. B. Configure the IMRT Phantom on the CT couch according to the anatomy to be treated. C. CT scan the phantom with the selected chamber in place. D. Import CT phantom scans into the treatment planning system. E. Transpose treatment plan onto CT phantom scans F. Place the phantom, with ion chamber, film, and diodes in place, on the accelerator treatment couch. G. Treat the phantom as the treatment plan indicates. H. Examine the output of the ion chamber (absolute dose), film (relative or fluence dose), MOSFET diodes (point dose) and compare them to the treatment plan.
Illustrations available, please click here on the detailed pdf information sheet, include the following:
Step A Coronal view of a patient scan from treatment planning computer that will be transposed onto the phantom scan. Step B Phantom positioned on the simulator couch ready to be scanned. Step C Scan the phantom. Step D Three view scan of the phantom in the treatment planning example. Step E The three view treatment plan is transposed onto the phantom scan. Step F Phantom on accelerator treatment couch ready for treatment. Step G Treat the phantom as if it was a patient. Step H Examine the output of the ion chamber. This table shows typical dose measurements from an ion chamber. In a similar manner point dose measurements from MOSFET diodes can be tabulated and examined.
