Table 3.

Calculated average film dose from ten test films using different calibration references. The calculated average film dose in a 4×4cm region of interest using FilmQAPro software, triple‐channel dosimetry, using either 0 and 7.5 Gy or 0 and 13 Gy reference dose films, which are used for linear scaling of the film calibration functions to account for system variations compared to calibration film scans. The percentage difference of the film dose to the actual irradiated dose is shown in the table
