Use of a multileaf collimator to increase the field width achievable with a dynamic wedge
A method is proposed for generating dynamic wedges spanning the entire field width, defined as the collimator opening in the wedged direction, without changes to existing hardware. The technique approximates the fluence pattern of a dynamic wedge by sequentially closing the leaves of a 120‐leaf mult...
