Abstract

The phantom measurements closely match the planned dose distributions in high and low dose-gradient regions. In addition, a significant positive statistical correlation was determined between the IMRT QA, daily QA, and rotational variation output measurements. Together, these results signify high degree of accuracy of both the DELTA4 phantom as well as the TomoTherapy Hi-Art system.
