説明

<p>Recently, a medical linear accelerator with a flattening filter free (FFF) mode has led to the use of FFF X-ray beams at clinical sites. The usefulness of FFF X-ray beams in high-precision radiation therapy has been reported. Therefore, the quality assurance and quality control for FFF X-ray beams have become necessary. In this study, the characteristics of the detectors of a newly developed 2-D diode array (MapCHECK2, Sun Nuclear Corporation) for FFF X-ray beams, i.e., dose reproducibility, dose rate dependence, dose linearity, and output factor, were evaluated. For the measurements, 6 and 10 MV FFF beams were used. The results showed that the coefficient of variation for dose reproducibility was within 0.08%, the dose rate dependence was less than 1.0%, the coefficient of determination of dose linearity was found to be R2=1.0, which was high, and the output factor agreed within 2.5% as compared with the farmer ion chamber, diode E, and pinpoint ion chamber for field sizes greater than 2×2 cm2. The results suggested that MapCHECK2 could be a useful tool for quality assurance and quality control for FFF X-ray beams.</p>
