ABSTRACT
A comparison of absorbed doses to water at a calibration depth determined by Japan Society of Medical Physics (JSMP) 12 and 01 was conducted, using a farmer type ionization chamber. The absorbed dose to water calibration factor (ND,W,Q0) and beam quality conversion factor (kQ,Q0) for JSMP 12 were smaller than the absorbed dose to water calibration factor and beam quality conversion factor for JSMP 01. Differences in absorbed doses at a calibration depth were -0.78% for 6 MV photon beam and -0.94% for 10 MV photon beam. In the present experiment, absorbed doses at a calibration depth were measured, using a farmer type ionization chamber. Further experiments at a larger number of facilities should be conducted to reveal the status of measurement of absorbed doses at a calibration depth using JSMP 12.
