Abstract
|
|
|
PURPOSE : To investigate the effect of asymmetric jaws for delivering a uniform accurate dose of radiation to the junctions.
METHODS & MATERIALS : A linear accelerator with a set of asymmetric jaws(varian 600C, 2100C, 2100CD with 4mev, 10mev, 10mev). Dose disribution was measured at the junctions with films in phantom. Total with each in deviation of jaws.
RESULTS : Film dosimetry showed the accuracy of asymmetric jaws depending on the machine.
CONCLUSION : Understanding the mechanical characteristics of the use of half-beam at the junctions, without hot or cold regions.
