Dose map from single channel: Calculates dose for each channel
independently
Dose map using density reference channel: Dual channel dosimetry – uses
the selected channel as the reference. The appropriate choice is to use the
channel where the slope of the dose response curve is least. Up to 30 Gy, at
least, the blue channel has the lowest slope and is the best choice for the
reference channel. Dual channel dosimetry with blue channel as reference is
equivalent to doing dosimetry by dividing red channel response by blue channel
response or using the radio of the green ro blue response.
Dose map using triple channel uniformity optimization: Splits the application
image into dose-dependent and dose-independent fractions thereby removing
the effect of film non-uniformities and scanner artifacts from the dose map - see
Micke, et al., Med. Phys., 38(5), 2011, pp 2523.
Recalibration using reference regions: Used to implement the OneScan
Protocol by removing scan-to-scan variability and making it possible to get
dosimetry results with a few minutes of radiochromic film exposure
Auto scale dose range: Scales the dose range of the dose map between the
highest and lowest detected values
