ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the relative dose of small fields measured by clinically common detectors and those obtained from Monte Carlo simulation in order to obtain the accurate measurement method, and to modify the inappropriate detectors.Methods The percentage depth-dose distribution curve and profile (flatness and symmetry) curves were collected at 2 cm×2 cm, 3 cm×3 cm, and 4 cm×4 cm under 6-MV X-ray of Trilogy linear accelerator by CC13, PFD, SFD, and blue phantom.The results were compared with the stimulation results from Monte Carlo method (the current gold standard).The correction factors for the detectors with large error were calculated to provide reference data for clinical practice.Results The results measured by SFD detector were most close to the results from Monte Carlo simulation.The measurement errors of CC13 and PFD detectors were large.The correction factor in the penumbra for CC13 and PFD detector was 0.664-1.499.Conclusions SFD detector is better than CC13 and PFD detector in the measurement of small fields, but CC13 and PFD detector can provide reference data for clinical practice after the corresponding correction.
