Description
Determining the spectral distribution of the emitted photon medical linear accelerator (linac) used in radiotherapy treatment is extremely important for performing dosimetry calculations as to accurately calculate the therapeutic dose distributions. Since directly measure the spectrum is very complicated, this paper presents an indirect technique to accurately calculate the spectra of Bremsstrahlung photons emitted by linacs.
