PTW 23342 0.02cc Soft X-Ray Chamber.
PTW 23342 0.02cc Soft X-Ray Chamber.
The 23342 soft X-ray chamber is the golden standard for absolute dose measurements in low-energy photon beams as used in superficial radiation therapy. Correction factors needed for the determination of absorbed dose to water are available. The chamber is designed for the use in solid state phantoms.
Features
• Ultra thin entrance window
• For low-energy photons from 8 keV to 35 keV
• Suitable for use in air and in solid state phantoms
Thin window plane parallel chamber for dose measurements in superficial radiation therapy.
