Implementation of a program for quality assurance on leaf positioning accuracy using Gafchromic ® RTQA2 films

Implementation of a program for quality assurance on leaf positioning accuracy using Gafchromic ® RTQA2 films

In radiotherapy treatments the correct dose delivery to the target volume and the consequent conservation of healthy tissues is affected by multileaf collimator (MLC) leaf positioning accuracy and reproducibility, mostly in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT): For this reason a quality assu...
