Abstract:Knowledge of the energy spectrum of an electron beam is relevant for accurate dose calculation in radiotherapy. In previous works, it has been possible to reconstruct the electron spectrum of various clinical energies (6, 9, 12 and 15 MeV) within the typical percentage of clinical acceptance (Pa > 95 %) according to the gamma index (GI) (2 %/2mm), for both depth dose percentages (PDD) and dose profiles (DP), except for 6 MeV profiles. Therefore, the purpose of this work was to introduce air between the radi… Show more
