Study of dosimetry techniques applied to electron beams with high dose rateElectrõesDosimetriaTSEIElektaTOPASTeses de mestrado - 2023Departamento de FísicaTese de mestrado, Engenharia Física, 2023, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de CiênciasElectron beams of 4-20 MeV are used for Total Skin Electron Irradiation (TSEI) of T-cell lymphomas like the mycosis fungoides type. High dose rate electron (HDRE) beams show effectiveness in achieving local control rates close to 100% and low rates of acute and late toxicity. An Elekta Infinity Agility machine was modeled without manufacturer information and the resulting 6 MeV (TSEI compatible energy) beam was compared with reference experimental beam. The dosimetric study was conducted using Advanced Markus® Type 34045 plane-parallel ionization chamber (IC) and GafChromicTM EBT-XD films. Both water (MP3) and solid water (RW3) were used, and beam evaluation involved reference 10x10 cm2 fields and 100 cm SSD as well as open fields and 240 cm SSD TSEI compatible. Functional performance testing was done for evaluation of beam constancy in HDRE operating mode. Results show a 0.983 Gy per 100 MU in reference conditions and a 9.115 times higher dose using HDRE mode. Gamma analysis passing of 100 % (2 mm DTA / 2 % DD) was obtained, for comparison between MP3 and RW3 HDRE beams in an open field configuration and for an SSD of 100 cm. The working range was within the effective range of EBTXD films. On a 240 cm spaced perpendicular plane, relative dose was verified as symmetrical within a 15 % tolerance. In an anthropomorphic phantom, dose was analyzed using the dual-field Stanford technique and dmax shift was seen to occur, discarding interface artifacts, from 1.40 ± 0.05 cm (SSDref) to 0.7 ± 0.2 cm. From TOPAS MC simulation, gamma analysis has shown that the model agrees completely with reference beam. Limited agreement was seen using SSD of 240 cm. MC model mimics the studied linac using reference conditions and SSD of 240 cm is adequate for TSEI implementation. More studies for confirmation of results and others focusing on non-reference conditions are needed.Peralta, Luís Filipe dos Santos Garcia, 1961-Repositório da Universidade de LisboaSousa, Edgar Alexandre Piazentim Ferreira da Mota e2024-01-25T09:29:14Z202320232023-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/62218enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-01-29T01:21:13Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/62218Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T01:58:39.237909Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
