Comparative investigation of beam quality index Q on flattening filter and flattening filter free 6 and 15 MV photon beams of an medical linear accelerator
An Elekta Synergy LINAC was used to investigate the beam quality index Q and the beam quality correction factor kQ, which is used for absolute dosimetry, in off-axis photon fields. It was found that the beam quality index Q of the photon energies with flattening filter decreases with increasing dist...
