An analysis of some dosimetric uncertainties in radiation therapy
1Cancer Treatment Center, Divine Providence Hospital, Williamsport, PA 17701.
Abstract:
A phenomenological analysis of the effect of several parameters on the precision of delivered dose is presented; experimental data are used to demonstrate the effect of these parameters on the delivered dose. It is shown that some setups possess inherently better precision than others; the need for strict quality control during patient treatment is supported by the data.
