Abstract
A procedure is described by which the AAPM-accredited dosimetry calibration laboratories could offer calibrations of plane-parallel ionization chambers for radiotherapy dosimetry applications, by comparison with a cylindrical ion chamber in a phantom irradiated by 60Co gamma rays. Ngas can thus be determined for the plane-parallel chamber under uniform conditions of photon scatter, and without the need for an electron fluence correction.
