Evaluation of prototype of improved electron collimation system for Elekta linear accelerators

PURPOSE: This study evaluated a new electron collimation system design for Elekta 6–20 MeV beams, which should reduce applicator weights by 25%–30%. Such reductions, as great as 3.9 kg for the largest applicator, should result in considerably easier handling by members of the radiotherapy team. METH...
