Résumé

EBT3 films were evaluated for relative dosimetry in water, in the energy range of therapeutic kV X ray beams. A film batch was calibrated in air for all nine beam qualities of a clinical unit (XStrahl 200). Monte Carlo (MC) simulations using MCNP v.6 facilitated the calculation of the film absorbed dose (f), and beam quality (k
