Beam characteristic of P.E collimators Add-on multileaf collimator
Introduction: Multileaf collimators (MLCs) are computer-controlled devices which are Useful and cost-effective tools for conformal therapy and intensity modulation radiotherapy (IMRT). Nowadays MLCs are important and standard configuration of the new medical linear accelerators which are substitute of conventional Blocks and has eliminated the ...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison between cone/Iris‐based and InCise MLC‐based CyberKnife plans for single and multiple brain metastases
We performed an evaluation of the CyberKnife InCise MLC by comparing plan qualities for single and multiple brain lesions generated using the first version of InCise MLC, fixed cone, and Iris collimators. We also investigated differences in delivery efficiency among the three collimators. Twenty-four patients with single or multiple brain mets treated previously in our clinic on a CyberKnife M6...
متن کاملEvaluation of MLC Thickness and Composite Effects on Collimation Parameters using EGSnrc and IAEA Phase Space Data
Background: Recently, multileaf collimators (MLC) have become an important part of any LINAC collimation system because they reduce the treatment planning time and improve the conformity. Important factors that affect MLCs collimation performance are leaves material composition and their thickness.Objective: In this study, we investigate main dosimetric parameters of a typical MLC includi...
متن کاملReal-time dynamic MLC tracking for inversely optimized arc radiotherapy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Motion compensation with MLC tracking was tested for inversely optimized arc radiotherapy with special attention to the impact of the size of the target displacements and the angle of the leaf trajectory. MATERIALS AND METHODS An MLC-tracking algorithm was used to adjust the MLC positions according to the target movements using information from an optical real-time posi...
متن کاملA study on needed or unneeded ReDosimetry and Recomissioning of a linac with Add on MLC by Comparing Dosimetric Data
Introduction: Today different uses of multileaf collimators(MLC) in different techniques of radiotherapy are common. Due to the use of this facility it is possible to have maximum radiation dose to target volumes and minimum radiation dose to critical tissues surronding treatment volumes. But there are numerouse Linear accelerators in IRAN without MLC. Because of high price of...
