The RisøScan dosimetry software package was originally developed at Risø National Laboratory in Denmark and released in 2004. It presents a simple and practical tool for analysis of spatial dosimetry measurements using radiochromic dosimetry films and a flatbed scanner.

RisøScan 2.0 is fully validated and has a wide range of features to improve the user experience, including an updated user interface. The main new features are:

User defined calibration functions – Polynomials are available as default calibration functions, however an option for the user to specify other calibration functions is made available.

Uncertainty analysis of calibration function - Estimation of the uncertainty components related to reproducibility and curve fit are automatically generated for the established calibration functions following the guidelines set out in documents such as ISO/ASTM 51261 and CIRM 29.

Data collection session – The user can store measurement data in a table inside RisøScan. All recorded data are logged in a separate file, and screenshots containing all measurement information are automatically saved for individual measurements. Specific measurements sessions for collecting min, max or depth dose data are available, as well as a more general data collection.

Data export – Measurement data collected during the sessions can be exported directly to Excel-files for easy access to post-analysis of the results.
