Volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) has been shown to be able to deliver plans equivalent to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in a fraction of the treatment time. This improvement is important for patient immobilization/localization compliance due to comfort and treatment duration, as well as patient throughput. Previous authors have suggested commissioning methods for this moda...

PURPOSE Scattered radiation from multi-leaf collimators (MLCs) is no longer negligible for calculating in-air output ratio, Sc for small and irregular fields often used in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). An extra-focal source model for scattered radiation from MLCs, namely MLC scatter source, has been developed to improve the accuracy of the Sc calculation. METHODS A conventiona...

This paper presents an analytical method for the calculation of the neutron ambient dose equivalent H* (10) regarding patients, whereby the different concrete types that are used in the surrounding walls of the treatment room are considered. This work has been performed according to a detailed simulation of the Varian 2300C/D linear accelerator head that is operated at 18MV, and silver activati...

Ion recombination is approximately corrected for in the Task Group 51 protocol by Pion, which is calculated by a two-voltage measurement. This measurement approach may be a poor estimate of the true recombination, particularly if Pion is large (greater than 1.05). Concern exists that Pion in high-dose-per-pulse beams, such as flattening filter free (FFF) beams, may be unacceptably high, renderi...

PERSONNEL HAZARDS FROM MEDICAL ELECTRON ACCELERATOR PHOTONEUTRONS" R. C. McCall, T. M. Jenkins, R. A. Shore and P. D. LaRiviere+ Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, CA, U.S.A. and Varian Associates? INTRODUCTION For medical accelerators, neutron penetration through the room entry door is the major personnel hazard. Most therapy accelerator rooms are designed with at least a rudimentary maze to ...

The aim is to study beam characteristics at large distances when focusing on the electron component. In particular, to investigate the utility of spoilers with various thicknesses as an electron source, as well as the effect of different spoiler-to-surface distances (STSD) on the beam characteristics and, consequently, on the dose in the superficial region. A MC model of a 15 MV Varian accelera...

Varian Halcyon 2.0 linear accelerator was launched and became available for clinical use in 2018. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the accuracy of exit fluence quality assurance (QA) head neck cancer treatment planning, pretreatment, treatment. The twenty plannings has been evaluated by conducting gamma analysis QA pretreatment each field composite using criteria index 3 %/3 mm 2 %/2 mm. ...
