Abstract
Complex treatment plans, especially for intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), need to be verified with at least one independent method. No matter which QA method is chosen (ionization chamber, film, or 2D arrays) it is difficult, to correlate a potentially occurring discrepancy between the calculated and measured dose distribution in the phantom to patients anatomy, to estimate its impact on the patient’s organs. We present here a system that can show 3D dose distribution on the patient’s organs based on fluence measurements. Introduction R. Boggula1, F. Lorenz1, H. Chen1, C. Gansemer1, H. Wertz1, A.
