Theoretical and Experimental Study of the Distribution of Radiation Dose of Electron Beams Used in Superficial Tumours Treatment
Abstract
In this work, a flat ionization chamber and a homogenous measurement medium were used to study the percentage changes in the depth dose of the electron beams produced by the Varian Clinic 23ix in Tishreen University Hospital in Lattakia, And study the features of the profile of these packages, which include flattening, symmetry and shadow, and then compared the experimental results with the reference values declared globally.
The accuracy of accelerator's labour used in this research is strongly confirmed since the result of the comparison refer to a perfect macth with the abovementioned values.
