An independent primary dose counter or totalizer has been developed for our linear accelerator. This counter is reset independently of the control console and thus will totalize the number of monitor units (MUs) delivered to the patient. This is espe

The characteristics of very small fields, 1 X 1 and 2 X 2 cm, of electron beams of nominal energies, 5, 7, 10, 12, 15, and 18 MeV have been studied and compared to a 10 X 10 cm field. A parallel-plate ion chamber and film have been used to obtain var

The TG-21 protocol recommends using a thin sheath for waterproofing an ion chamber used in the calibration of photon and electron beams. A thickness of 0.5 mm is suggested for a material having a composition and density close to that of water. This w

The relative dose distribution around a 5.0-cm-long piece of 192Ir wire has been measured using LiF chips. Measurements were made at distances of 0.25 to 5.0 cm away from the source and distances of 0.0 to 4.0 cm along the source. In addition, measur

The dosimetry of 192Ir linear sources with a commercial treatment planning computer system has been evaluated. Reference dose rate data were selected from the literature and normalized in a manner consistent with our clinical and dosimetric terminolo
