| dc.description | Tandem systems, each formed by a pencil ionization chamber with and without a specific covering, were developed and tested in standard radiation beams. These systems were designed to be used in computed tomography radiation beams, where the half-value layer (HVL) determination is not an easy task. The behaviour of the tandem systems in diagnostic radiology showed the possibility of their use to confirm HVL values previously determined by the conventional HVL measurement method in quality control programmes. These systems also have other advantages: low cost, easy application and quick measurement procedure. |
