According to that work, the influence of the wall and stem on the ionization chamber response, utilized by the PTB (parallel-plate graphite cavity ionization chamber) as refer- ence
Body of Abstract: Ionization chambers are radiation detectors widely used for X- rays measurements and quality control tests in diagnostic radiology. In radiotherapy, the
The objective of this work was to perform definitive characterization tests (null depth, stability of response, leakage current, saturation of response,
The transmission chamber characteristics, studied in this work – response linearity, charge collection efficiency, polarity effect, energy dependence, leakage current and
The results obtained for the characterization tests include: saturation curve, ion collection efficiency, polarity effect, the linearity response with the X ray tube current
The characterization tests performed were: short- and long-term stability, stabilization time, saturation, ion collection efficiency, leakage current, linearity
The established standard beams at an industrial X-ray system Pantak-Seifert were used for the characterization tests of the ionization chambers as short- and medium-term
The mammography homemade ionization chamber was stu- died with respect to the saturation curve, ion collection ef fi ciency, polarity effect, linearity of response and
