- Abstract:
- Abstract: Film dosimeter is a significant dosimetry tool in radiotherapy. Radiochromic film has not only high spatial resolutions, but also broad range of dose response, good tissue equivalence and week energy dependence. Moreover, no chemical processing was needed for radiochromic film. With the development of product performance and product system, the application of radiochromic film is becoming more and more common, having important values in the daily dose measurement, treatment plan verification and quality assurance. The characteristics, film types, dosimetric processes (film irradiation, scanning, dose calibration) and clinical application of radiochromic film dosimeter are briefly summarized in this review.
