Monte Carlo calculations of output factors for clinically shaped electron fields

We report on the use of the EGS4/BEAM Monte Carlo technique to predict the output factors for clinically relevant, irregularly shaped inserts as they intercept a linear accelerator's electron beams. The output factor for a particular combination—energy, cone, insert, and source‐to‐surface dista...
