Virtual electron energies dosimetry of a medical linear accelerator

METHODS

GafChromic EBT films is placed perpendicular to solid water
phantom irradiated with two different electron energies. Dosimetry
of virtual energies were evaluated by PTW Mephysto
mc² Verisoft software program.

RESULTS

The comparison of treatment planning computer and dosimetric
data of the virtual energies showed that they were compatable
with each other.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion; it is recommended that one should use the virtual
energies after the determination of the dosimetric characteristics.
