Popis: | In a previous communication (Casebow 1976) some general equations for the calculation of machine set-up angles were derived for the treatment of inclined lesions using co-planar fields. A three-field technique of special use in neck treatments (as in Fig. 1) involves angulation of the lateral fields in a superior direction to avoid the shoulders, so that the fields are no longer co-planar. |
