The system was specifically designed for the small field dosimetry.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods:</jats:title><jats:p>The optical scanner used a fan‐beam laser, which was produced from a collimated red laser beam (λ=620 nm) with a 15‐degree laser‐line generating lens. The fan‐beam was sent through an index‐matching bath which holds the sample stage and a sample. The emerging laser light was detected with a 2.54 cm‐long CMOS array detector (512 elements). The sample stage rotated through the full 360 degree projection angles at 0.9‐degree increments. Each projection was normalized to the unirradiated sample at the projection angle to correct for imperfections in the dosimeter. A larger sample could be scanned by using a motorized mirror and linearly translating the CMOS detector. The height of the sample stage was varied for a full 3D scanning. The image acquisition and motor motion was controlled by a computer. The 3D image reconstruction was accomplished by a fan‐beam reconstruction algorithm. All the software was developed inhouse with MATLAB.</jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:</jats:title><jats:p>The scanner was used on both PRESAGE and PAGAT gel dosimeters. Irreconcilable refraction errors were seen with PAGAT because the fan beam laser line refracted away from the detector when the field was highly varying in 3D.

Preliminary results showed that the system was more suited for radiochromic solid dosimeters since the radiochromic dosimeters exhibited minimal refraction and scattering errors.
