Dosimetry for small fields in stereotactic radiosurgery using gafchromic MD-V2-55 film, TLD-100 and alanine dosimeters

This work investigated the suitability of passive dosimeters for reference dosimetry in small fields with acceptable accuracy. Absorbed dose to water rate was determined in nine small radiation fields with diameters between 4 and 35 mm in a Leksell Gamma Knife (LGK) and a modified linear accelerator...
