Modification of the 4 MeV electron beam from a linear accelerator for irradiation of small superficial skin tumors
Uniform dose distribution with steep lateral gradient within depth range of 0–0.5 cm is crucial to be able to treat small skin lesions. The standard nominal 4 MeV electron beam from Elekta Versa HD linear accelerator was modified with degrading filter to remove the lateral scatter from treatment hea...
