Investigation of Radiation Isocenter Accuracy of Linear Accelerator – New Approach of Comprehensive Evaluation of Gantry, Couch, and Collimator Isocenters

This combined radiation isocenter verification tool aids in comprehensive evaluation of gantry, couch and collimator isocenters using radiographic film. It is easier to implement and faster to analyse compared to existing techniques, using a PC-based program that minimizes human error and increases measurement accuracy. This new approach can be used for routine quality assurance checks.

Abstract

This combined radiation isocenter verification tool aids in comprehensive evaluation of gantry, couch and collimator isocenters using radiographic film. It is easier to implement and faster to analyse compared to existing techniques, using a PC-based program that minimizes human error and increases measurement accuracy. This new approach can be used for routine quality assurance checks.
