A test tool for the visual verification of light and radiation fields using film or an electronic portal imaging device.

We describe the design and evaluation of a simple test tool which can be used in conjunction with either film or an electronic portal imaging device (EPID) to verify light and radiation fields and their congruence. The precision of the technique is better than 0.5 mm under all conditions tested. When used with film the accuracy or offset of the technique (the difference between test tool observations and a scanned conventional film) is better than 0.5 mm but, with an EPID as the image receptor, the accuracy dropped to, in one trial, 0.86 mm. The offset may be due to a systematic observer bias in determining the 50% O.D. level on the image, compounded, in the case of EPID measurements, by image acquisition and display parameters. Thus, when used with an EPID, calibration of the system will be required if absolute field dimensions are required. When used with film, the test tool method described here is of sufficient accuracy and precision to confirm the compliance of light and radiation field parameters with currently accepted quality control protocols.
