Offering a new system that allows a more comprehensive irradiator dosimetry commissioning or validation of units already in the field.
Methodology
Gafchromic Film Usage
Gafchromic Film for Irradiation Field Homogeneity Analysis
Using Gafchromic film, assess the homogeneity of the irradiation field within the gamma and/or x-ray irradiator within a +/- 5.2% standard tolerance.
Phantom Construction and Placement
Dosequate® System Uses Customized Phantoms
Utilize the Dosequate® System with 3D-printed mouse and other dose-in-water equivalent phantoms implanted with alanine pellets. Set up and placement is tailored to your facility's unique requirements.
3D Rendering and Documentation
Rendering and Documentation of Irradiation Chamber Setup
Generate a 3D rendering or pictures, along with a thorough dosimetry report, detailing phantom placement, energy spectrum, exposure time, filters used, and container configurations to ensure reproducibility in future experiments.
Advantages of the System
Real-world applications
Unlike conventional dosimetry techniques, the Dosequate® system mirrors actual experimental conditions by accounting for the presence of circular pie cages and other specific enclosures frequently utilized during irradiation cycles.
Energy independence
The Dosequate® system is compatible with both gamma and x-ray irradiators, regardless of the manufacturer.
N.I.S.T. traceability
The Dosequate® system ensures NIST traceability through either our internal primary calibration laboratory or direct NIST analysis, maintaining an expanded uncertainty of ±2.8% at a 95% confidence interval.
Reproducibility & repeatability
Standardization eliminates institutional variables, giving researchers the confidence to harmonize their findings with the broader scientific community.
Training and knowledge
By utilizing the Dosequate® system, researchers gain a sophisticated understanding of their irradiation parameters, including source-to-specimen distance, beam filtration, and beam hardening effects. This high-fidelity characterization empowers users to document their experimental methodologies with the precision and clarity required for high-impact peer-reviewed publications.
