“…On the other hand, the dosimetry system composed of radiochromic films and a flatbed scanner suffers from several sources of uncertainty, which can affect the film (e.g., differences in the active layer thickness 9 , evolution of film darkening with post-irradiation time 10,11 , dependency on humidity and temperature 12 , noncatalytic and ultraviolet-catalyzed polymerization 13 , scratches), the scanner (e.g., the warming-up of the lamp 14,15 , inter-scan variations 16,17 , noise 18,19 , dust), or the interaction between film and scanner (e.g., the lateral artifact [20][21][22] , the dependency on the orientation of the film on the scanner bed 23 , the dependency on film-to-light source distance 16, 24 , Newton rings 25 , the cross talk effect 21 ). Film handling and scanning protocols 8,18 , corrections 16,17, [26][27][28][29] and multichannel dosimetry methods [30][31][32][33] have been developed to reduce uncertainties and deliver precise and accurate doses 34,35 .…”
