•
Investigators reported inconsistent results of rel. E response.
•
E.g.: for EBT3 Brown et al (2012) used synchrotron mono-chromatic x-rays and
found up to 3% dose over-response (
) at low E (25-35 keV) while
Massillon-JL et al (2012) reported under-response up to 13% for 50kVp beams.
•
It became apparent that manufacturing and compositional changes do take
place, that are not always accompanied by updates to the film model or label
(!!!)
