Analysis 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...
متن کاملLocalization of electron virtual SSD in a Siemens-Primus linear accelerator: Comparison of measurements with Monte Carlo simulation
Introduction: Because of importance of impact of the Source to Surface Distance (SSD) in determining of monitor unit for electron-therapy, it is essential to know the Virtual Source Position (VSP) for electron beam for a linear therapeutic accelerator for each energy and field size. , especially using the Khan method (photo distance squared method) And compare the results with...
متن کاملSeasonal variations of serum copper concentration in Raeini cashmere goats
The aim of this study is to determine the serum copper (Cu) concentration found in Iranian Raeini cashmere goats in different seasonal and climatic conditions. Twenty four male (6 to 18 months old) and 48 female (6 to 18 and 18 to 30 months old) Raeini goats were selected from the station, rural, and nomadic flocks. The average Cu concentrations among the male and female goats were 0.5 ± 0.04 a...
متن کاملSystematic and comprehensive analysis of the dose-response characteristics of a morning quality check of a linear accelerator and an important application of accelerator performance prediction
Background: This paper aimed to analyze the output constancy of a medical linear accelerator using PTW QUICKCHECKwebline and studied the sensitivity of the PTW QUICKCHECKwebline. Materials and Methods: The paper statistically analyzed the output doses of 6 MV and 10 MV of photons and 6 MeV, 9 MeV, and 12 MeV of electrons from a medical linear accelerator measured before the daily treatment to ...
متن کاملSeasonal variations in cryptorchidism.
The month of birth of boys undergoing orchidopexy in the Oxfordshire Health District during the years 1974-83 was analysed. A significant seasonal variation with a peak in April was found for those boys operated upon by paediatric surgeons at a young age (0-4). Possible causes of this variation and its relationship to the aetiology of cryptorchidism are discussed.
