Planar EPID-Based Dosimetry for SRS and SRT Patient-Specific QA

The study’s purpose was to develop and validate Electronic Portal Imaging Device (EPID)-based dosimetry for Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (SRT) patient-specific Quality Assurance (QA). The co-operation between extended Source-to-Imager Distance (SID) to reduce th...
