Introduction Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) provides the means for improved treatment for a wide variety of cancers. Piggybacked onto 3DCRT and MLC technologies, IMRT has developed quickly, but will undoubtedly see improvements in core hardware and software as well as in peripheral applications such as record and verify, gating, etc. At the core, individual treatment centers shoul...
Accurate and repeatable setup of patients is a requisite in radiotherapy. In the treatment of head-and-neck tumors, accurate setup is particularly important because of the proximity of the treatment volume to critical structures such as the spinal cord, brainstem, and parotid glands. When intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is used, proximity of this kind between the target and normal organ...
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 ...
introduction: in recent decades, several monte carlo codes have been introduced for research and medical applications. these methods provide both accurate and detailed calculation of particle transport from linear accelerators. the main drawback of monte carlo techniques is the extremely long computing time that is required in order to obtain a dose distribution with good statistical accuracy. ...
background: in radiotherapy, wedge filters are used for optimizing the tumor dose distribution in patients. the attenuation in beam intensity due to the presence of wedge filter is compensated by means of a wedge factor measured at the central axis of the beam. the field size, depth and ssd dependence of wedge factor have been assessed for 9mv radiations of neptun pc linear accelerator. materia...
Introduction: Radiotherapy is one of the important treatment modalities in cancer treatment. To maintain procedure accuracy, phantom an essential tool for absolute dosimetry conformation and Quality Assurance routine cheek up. This work aims to study absorbed dose various phantoms hence make a comparison result with IAEA recommendation (TRS 398) daily QA Linac. Materials Methods: The experiment...

One of the most commonly used types of accelerators is linear electron accelerator. There is a project is in progress in Institute for research in fundamental sciences (IPM) aiming to design and build such an accelerator. It is defined in such a way that all parts to be built in Iran as possibly as it can. In this paper, after a brief explanation of the components of an electron linear accelera...
Introduction: In radiation therapy with high-energy photon beams (E > 7 MeV) neutrons are generated mainly in LINACs head thorough (γ, n) interactions. These neutrons affect the shielding requirements in radiation therapy rooms. According to the protocol TG-34, photon absorbed dose of 10Gy can cause permanent damage to the pacemaker and the dose of 2Gy can make minor changes in...
