Comparing Dosimetric Properties of Physical and Virtual Wedge Filters At High Energy Photons

Öz

The aim of this study is to determine the advantages and disadvantages of physical and virtual wedge filters used in radiothreapy for mod-ifing dose distribution by investigating the dosimetric features of them. In order to comparing the wedge factors (WF), percent depth dose (%DD) curves, surface and the environment dose values were obtained. Tha measuements were performed in Siemens Artiste lineer acceler-ator at the energies of 6 MV and 15 MV with the fields of 5x5, 10x10, 15x15 ve 20x20 cm2 at SSD 100 cm by using different ion chambers in water and solid water fantoms. The WF measurements were done at 5 cm depth by Farmer ion chamber, while the percent DD curves and surface dose values were measured by Semifleks ion chamber and Marcus paralel plate ion chamber, respectively. The environment dose measurements using the 2-D Array at dmax and 5 cm depth were performed. It was found that the physical and the virtual WFs were in-creased from small to large fields in the same depth. The environment dose values of the virtual wedge was higher than the physical wedge. For the virtual wedge, the effect of wedge angle on environment dose was negligable unlike large fields. For the physical wedge, the envi-ronment dose was deacreased by increasing wedge angle and increased by increasing depth and field size. As a result, virtual wedge filters would be preferred due to the ease of setup and shortening of treatment time. Additionally virtual wedge filters were provided more angle alternatives compared to physical wedge filters.
