Gammex 457 Standard Grade Solid Water
 
     Description: Gammex 457-CTG is a Certified Therapy Grade (CTG) of Solid Water® that is manufactured to the most exact quality assurance standards in the industry and is ideally suited to AAPM’s Task Group 51 protocol recommendations. CTG Solid Water® is designed for electron and photon beam measurements including relative ionization, depth dose and uniformity. Gammex performs meticulous analysis of each slab to ensure the highest possible quality. We provide a Certificate of Conformance with each slab that includes:
  • Calculated elemental composition
  • Calculated mass
  • Volume electron densities
  • Electron and photon transmission characteristics
  • Measured physical dimensions
A radiograph is also provided demonstrating that the product is free from voids, contamination or other artifacts. Our precision manufacturing techniques provide ion chamber cavities free from air pockets or voids and assure measurement accuracy and reproducibility of chamber placement within the radiation beam. Gammex 457-CTG is available in 20x20 cm, 30x30 cm, and 40x40 cm slabs with thicknesses from 0.2 cm to 6.0 cm.

Convenient packages of CTG Solid Water® kits are also available in the following sizes:

Specifications:

  • Electron and Photon Stopping Power
    Linear attenuation coefficient relative to water shall be 1.030 ±0.01 for photon energies from100 kV to 24 MV.
     
  • Homogeneity
    Material shall be free from air bubbles or other artifacts greater than 1 mm in diameter within 5 cm of the center of the slab. No more than two (2) air bubbles or other artifacts greater than 2 mm in diameter outside the 5 cm radius, but within 10 cm of center. Scanning for homogeneity shall be done by x-ray at 50 kVp, no filtration, with a dose sufficient to produce an x-ray image of 0.8 to 1.2 o.d.
     
  • Dimensions
    Tolerance for the length and width, or diameter of the Gammex 457-CTG material shall be the nominal ±0.5 mm
    • Thickness Tolerance: ±0.15 mm (0.006 in)
    • Flatness: ±0.15 mm (0.006 in)
      Where applicable, squareness shall be within 90º ±0.3º
