Abstract:The purpose of this work was to determine the water-equivalent thickness of Superflab bolus material for narrow and broad field-of -view (FOV) x-ray geometries at diagnostic x-ray energies. Methods: Transmission measurements were performed for incremental thicknesses of Superflab bolus material and water in narrow and broad FOV x-ray geometries. The transmission data was fit to a non-linear model for x-ray transmission -the Archer model. Water-equivalent thickness of Superflab was calculated based upon fitting… Show more
