An Analytical Method to Calculate Phantom Scatter Factor for Photon Beam Accelerators

Introduction: One of the important input factors in the commissioning of the radiotherapy treatment planning systems is the phantom scatter factor (Sp) which requires the same collimator opening for all radiation fields. In this study, we have proposed an analytical method to overcome this issue....
