Evaluation of the spatial resolution of Gafchromic (TM) HD-V2 radiochromic film characterized by the modulation transfer function
AIP ADVANCES(2023)
摘要
The Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) characteristics of radiochromic film (RCF) dosimetry with optical systems were evaluated with an RCF, HD-V2, which is transferred with the line patterns of the resolution test chart. In the evaluation using a GT-X980 flatbed scanner, a high contrast spatial resolution with an MTF of >= 0.8 is limited to about 83.3 mu m due to artifacts such as scattering of the HD-V2 transmitted light. To achieve high contrast at higher spatial frequencies, a test bench microdensitometer (TBMD) was developed, and its optical performance, dose equivalent response, and spatial resolution characteristics with MTF were evaluated. The TBMD had a minimum readout focal diameter of 13 mu m, and its high contrast spatial resolution with an MTF of >= 0.8 is about 11.9 mu m. The result that the optical density error increases with decreasing focal diameter in the TBMD supports our hypothesis that these errors are based on the non-uniformity of the shading and surface roughness of the HD-V2 active layer monomers.
