The OrthoChromic protocol requires only two film exposures for entire analysis: the treatment field and the calibration field.

OrthoChromic film was designed to be the most robust and user friendly dosimetry film. The special coating layer is waterproof, making it safe for use in water tanks. The reflective nature of the film is designed to eliminate most of the interfaces that can create artifacts during the scanning process with commonly used flatbed scanners. The flexible nature of the film also enables it to be used in phantoms of all shapes and curvatures.  The OrthoChromic protocol involves just three simple steps to verify an IMRT plan:

• Scan films with treatment and calibration fields

• Assign calibration plan to calibration field area (auto registration)

• Assign treatment plan to treatment field area (auto registration)
