The overshoot phenomenon in step‐and‐shoot IMRT delivery
The control loop in the Varian DMLC system (V4.8) requires [Formula: see text] msec to monitor and halt the irradiation of a segment, causing an “overshoot” effect: the segment ends on a fractional monitor unit larger than that planned. As a result, the actual MU delivered may differ from that plann...
