PURPOSE To perform a quantitative study to verify that the mechanical field center coincides with the radiation field center when both are off from the isocenter during the single-isocenter technique in linear accelerator-based SRS/SBRT procedure to treat multiple lesions. METHODS We developed an innovative method to measure this accuracy, called the off-isocenter Winston-Lutz test, and here ...

Radiation therapy requires precision to avoid unintended irradiation of normal organs. Electronic Portal Imaging Devices (EPIDs), can help with precise patient positioning for accurate treatment. EPIDs are now bundled with new linear accelerators, or they can be purchased from the Linac manufacturer for retrofit. Retrofitting a third party EPID to a linear accelerator can pose challenges. The a...

Radiotherapy employs high energy radiation for the purpose of cancer treatment. Precise patient positioning is essential with the current use of complicated treatment plans. Portal imaging is often used for pre and during treatment anatomical setup verification. Currently the most advanced and widely used amorphous silicon Electronic portal imaging device (EPID) (aSi 1000) and the TrueBeam line...

In intensity modulated radiation treatments (IMRT), the position of the field edges and the modulation within the beam are often achieved with a multileaf collimator (MLC). During the MLC calibration process, due to the finite accuracy of leaf position measurements, a systematic error may be introduced to leaf positions. Thereafter leaf positions of the MLC depend on the systematic error introd...
