1
Q
Absorbed dose
A
Includes both the primary dose and dose due to scatter from the medium
2
Q
F factor
A
Converts exposure to absorbed dose
3
Q
Exposure rate
A
Only useful in beam energies up to cobalt
Varies with
Energy
Field size
Distance
4
Q
If dose is measured at dmax….
A
It is called MADR
5
Q
Absorbed dose rate
A
Not limited to photons like exposure
6
Q
Relative dose factor
A
Divided into collimator scatter factor and phantom scatter factor
