PTW 31015, 0.03 cc PinPoint® Chamber

The PinPoint chambers are ideal for dose measurements in small fields as encountered e.g. in IORT, IMRT and stereotactic beams.  Relative dose distributions can be measured with very high spatial resolution when the chambers are moved perpendicular to the chamber axis.  The waterproof, fully guarded chambers can be used in air, solid state phantoms and in water.

• Small-sized cylindrical ion chambers with vented sensitive volumes of only 0.015 cm³ / 0.03 cm³ and 2 mm / 2.9 mm in diameter

• Ideal for dose measurements in small fields as e.g. in IORT, IMRT and stereotactic beams

• Very high spatial resolution when used for scans perpendicular to the chamber axis

• Suitable for field sizes from 2 cm x 2 cm to 30 cm x 30 cm

• Aluminum central electrode.

Ultra small-sized therapy chambers for dosimetry in high-energy photon beams.
