Abstract

V, EC and RF films were put in individual light-tight paper envelope. Calibration curves were established using clinical x-ray beams at 60, 80 and 100 kVp. Upon completion of procedure, V and EC films were processed with auto processor, no processing needed for radiochromic RF films Portal radiation dose pattern and area of maximum dose were easily visualized. Dose was obtained from calibration curves.
