Practical Dosimetry Considerations for Small MLC-Shaped Electron Fields at 60 cm SSD

Superficial tumours can be treated with megavoltage electron beams. The underlying tissue can be spared through the steep dose fall-off gradients over a range of a few centimetres.An accurate Monte Carlo model for an Elekta Precise was determined and dose distribution was simulated. Dosimetric param...
