Abstract:
According to the German Industrial Norm DIN 6847-5 for constancy tests of linear accelerators, the measurements of the dose-monitor calibration and of the flatness of electron and photon beams for four different gantry angles are mandatory. The mounting devices developed in the Clinic for Radiation Therapy in Augsburg offer the possibility to perform all necessary constancy tests.
