Neutron source strength measurements for Varian, Siemens, Elekta, and General Electric linear accelerators

The shielding calculations for high energy ([Formula: see text]) linear accelerators must include the photoneutron production within the head of the accelerator. Procedures have been described to calculate the treatment room door shielding based on the neutron source strength (Q value) for a specifi...
