Assessing the deviation from the inverse square law for orthovoltage beams with closed‐ended applicators

In this report, we quantify the divergence from the inverse square law (ISL) of the beam output as a function of distance (standoff) from closed‐ended applicators for a modern clinical orthovoltage unit. The divergence is clinically significant exceeding 3% at a 1.2 cm distance for 4 × 4 and [Formul...
