Corrections to traditional methods of verifying tangential‐breast 3D monitor‐unit calculations: Use of an equivalent triangle to estimate effective fields

This paper describes an innovative method for correctly estimating the effective field size of tangential‐breast fields. The method uses an “equivalent triangle” to verify intact breast tangential field monitor‐unit settings calculated by a 3D planning system to within 2%. The effects on verificatio...
