Pre-data Taking Information and Notes

  • Used 200mmx200mmx2mm green scintillator sheet polystyrene base sandwiched by two 200mmx200mmx50mm polystyrene clear plastic blocks
  • 53cm from lens to sheet
  • Check camera in focus with ruler on the sheet
  • Near/Far limit of focus 49.4cm 57.1cm calculated using https://dofmaster.com/dofjs.html
  • Pelicase on couch
  • Scintillator blocks aligned to laser cross hairs
  • 785 mm source to surface distance suitable for output factor/PDD/profile measurements.
  • Room lights out and pelicase window open.
  • Check optical axis aligned with top surface using crosshair in the image analysis.
  • Arrived at hospital at 11am, finished data taking at 5pm

Data Taking

  • All images taken with Nikon D7000, 20mm lens, f/2.8, 400ISO
  • Used camera control pro 2 app
  • Image of ruler taken at sheet for pixels to mm conversion
  • 5 images taken at each collimator size with 1 background image each.
  • Change exposure time until near max saturation - get's best bit depth

Can see green discolouration caused by previous irradiations.
Blocks must have been rotated by 90 when re-assembling

Second run
Replaced plastic blocks from first run with new un-irradiated plastic blocks, but using same green scintillator sheet.
