Factory quality assurance of passive radiotherapy intensity modulators for electrons using kilovoltage x‐ray imaging

PURPOSE: This work developed an x‐ray‐based method for performing factory quality assurance (QA) of Passive Radiotherapy Intensity Modulators for Electrons (PRIME) device fabrication. This method measures errors in position, diameter, and orientation of cylindrical island blocks on a hexagonal grid...
