Abstract

Photon radiation induced decolourisation of radiochromic film changes its optical density. The photon dose is thereby evaluated as a function of optical density. The detection limit of common radiochromic films lies between 1 cGy and 20 Gy. This paper describes a novel evaluation method of radiochromic films using cosine-distance analysis of the RGB-colour vectors instead of conventional optical density measurements using a scanner in transmission mode. This allows extending the detection limit to excess of 40 Gy.
