Use of the FBX dosemeter for the calibration of cobalt-60 and high-energy teletherapy machines.

The doses from the cobalt-60 teletherapy machines were measured using the FBX and secondary-standard dosemeters of Farmer-Baldwin type. The FBX dosemeter contained 0.20 mM ferrous ammonium sulphate, 5.0 mM benzoic acid and 0.20 mM xylenol orange in 0.05 N sulphuric acid. The values were compared with the values from a Fricke dosemeter and a graphite chamber used as primary standards. The values of the FBX, Fricke and graphite chambers agreed. There were, however wide differences among the different secondary-standard dosemeters themselves and with the FBX dosemeter. The FBX dosemeter was used for the measurement of central axis depth dose distributions for 5, 8, 10, 20 and 30 MeV electron and 42 MV x-ray beams.[1]
