Elaisee Liquid Ionization Chambers
Wickman & Holmstroem
For over thirty years, we have been recognized as the world leader
in the development of Liquid Ionization Chambers (LIC) for applications
where high-precision absorbed dose measurements are required.
Our patent protected LIC-concept
and chamber designs
are tested at a variety of applications in diagnostic radiology,
brachytherapy and radiotherapy radiation fields. Most of the results are
published in the scientific
literature. (Reference list
) The various tests have shown that with respect to its low energy
dependency and long term calibration stability the liquid ionization
chamber behaves as excellently as an ordinary ionization chamber. There
are however significant differences in their qualities. The ordinary ionization
chamber needs a sensitive volume that is about 300 times larger than the
LIC in order to produce sufficient signal. The ordinary ionization chamber
perturbs the radiation field in water or tissue like materials, the LIC
doesn’t!
