Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about the Patient Dose Calibrator (PDC), a reference class instrument designed for the calibration of patient dose measurement and control systems. It ensures accurate patient dose comparisons across institutions.
Key Features and Benefits:
  • Complete DAP Meter Assessment: Measures Dose Area Product (DAP) and DAP-rate across various field sizes and beam qualities.
  • Symmetrical Response: Suitable for use with under-couch tubes without inversion.
  • Patient Dose System Assessment: Capable of measuring dose and dose-rate.
  • Durability: Constructed with a tough ABS plastic housing for long-term stability.
  • Optional Remote Control Software: Allows automatic data capture with customizable templates.
Applications:
  • DAP and Dose Linearity: Calibration with dose and field size.
  • Sensitivity Testing: Ensures accurate dose measurements.
  • Calibration at Patient Plane or Reference Distance: Provides flexibility in measurement settings.
Calibration and Quality Assurance:
  • Entrance (Skin) Dose Calibration: Uses a phantom for surface dose calibration and establishes reference DAP and dose levels.
  • Image Receptor Dose Calibration: Verifies image receptor dose measurements and tests AEC linearity.
Specifications/Technical Data:
  • Display Range: Includes dose area product and air kerma with digital resolution.
  • Automatic Temperature and Pressure Correction: Ensures accurate readings under varying environmental conditions.
  • Power Supply: Operates on an internal rechargeable battery pack.
  • Protection Class: Complies with IEC 60529 standards.
  • Weight and Dimensions: Portable with a convenient carry case.
