Studies on the Characteristics of Medical X-ray Films Using the High Energy Radiation

Two different commercial brand X-ray films are used for examining possible differences caused by different target distances when the patients are examined with highenergy X-rays. 6MV- and 15MV X-rays are tested at four different target distances. The films on which the radiation amounts are gradually increased using H$_2$O phantoms are developed by an automatic developing machine to be analysed in the image densities. Characteristic curves have similar shapes for different conditions but for the 130cm target distance. ${\gamma}$ values and average image densities per the illuminated radiation are used to analyse the differences.
