Advances in Medical Linear Accelerator Technology
Technological inventions and developments have created new possibilities and breakthroughs in medical era. The classic example is the discovery of X-rays by W.C. Roentgen, one hundred years ago. The first dawning rays appeared quite literally just before the beginning of the 20th century. In 1895 a German physicist named Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen accidentally discovered a form of radiation that c...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Phase Space Generator software for Medical Linear Accelerator Applications
Introduction: During the last decades, simulation of radiation therapy treatment conditions in treatment room for studying with more details in comparison with treatment planning system (TPS) is taken into consideration. The most problem with starting these kind of researches is the geometry of Medical linacs and verification of the accelerators. Therefore, researchers tried to...
متن کاملThe use of radiographic film for linear accelerator stereotactic radiosurgical dosimetry.
The measurement of stereotactic radiosurgical dose distributions requires an integrating, high-resolution dosimeter capable of providing a spatial map of absorbed dose. Although radiographic film is an accessible dosimeter fulfilling these criteria, for larger radiotherapy photon fields the sensitivity of film emulsion exhibits significant dependencies on both depth in phantom and field size. W...
متن کاملSimulation of a medical linear accelerator for teaching purposes
Simulation software for medical linear accelerators that can be used in a teaching environment was developed. The components of linear accelerators were modeled to first order accuracy using analytical expressions taken from the literature. The expressions used constants that were empirically set such that realistic response could be expected. These expressions were programmed in a MATLAB envir...
متن کاملAnalysis of Accuracy of Interpolation Methods in Estimating the Output Factors for Square Fields in Medical Linear Accelerator
Introduction: To estimate the accuracy levels of Lagrange, Newton backward interpolation, and linear interpolation methods in estimating the output factors for square fields used in linear accelerator for 6 MV photons at various depths. Materials and Methods: Ionization measurements were carried out in radiation field analyzer in linear accelerator for 6 MV beams at the depths of 5 and 10 cm by...
