Dose Variation Profiles of Small Fields with a 10 MV Photon Beam
نویسندگان
چکیده
Radiotherapy is a treatment of carcinogenic tumors using ionising radiation and the improvement radiotherapy techniques has been conducted to protection healthy tissues. Recent implementations have employed static fields with small dimensions. The interests for this work were fields, used in modern such as Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (SRS) Intensity Modulated (IMRT).

Monte carlo simulation of varian clinac iX 10 MV photon beam for small field dosimetry
Background: The lack of lateral electronic disequilibrium (LED) becomes a main problem in small field. This factor affects the dose in target volume cannot predict correctly. In addition, utilization of high-energy linear accelerator (10 MV) can emit some unwanted particles (electron contamination). Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize head linear accelerator (linac) Varian Clin...
متن کاملAssessment of an Unshielded Electron Field Diode Dosimeter for Beam Scanning in Small- to Medium-Sized 6 MV Photon Fields
Introduction Radiotherapy planning systems require many percentage depth dose (PDD) and profile measurements and there are various dosimeters that can be used to obtain these scans. As dose perturbation is particularly troublesome in smaller photon fields, using a low-perturbation, unshielded electron field diode (EFD) in these fields is of interest. The aim of this work was to investigate the ...

متن کاملBeam Characterization of 10-MV Photon Beam from Medical Linear Accelerator without Flattening Filter
AIM This work investigated the dosimetric properties of a 10-MV photon beam emitted from a medical linear accelerator (linac) with no flattening filter (FF). The aim of this study is to analyze the radiation fluence and energy emitted from the flattening filter free (FFF) linac using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. MATERIALS AND METHODS The FFF linac was created by removing the FF from a linac ...
متن کاملUsing Varian Photon Beam Source Model for Dose Calculation of Small Fields
The use of small fi elds in radiotherapy techniques has increased substantially, in particular in stereotactic treatments and large uniform or nonuniform fi elds that are composed of small fi elds, such as for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). This clinical perspective will focus on an experimental evaluation of the dose calculation accuracy of the anisotropic analytical algorithm (...
