Abstract
To perform dynamic stereotactic radiotherapy, a number of modifications to the commercial linear accelerator were required and these are described in this report. A couch drive system was added to rotate the couch in synchrony with the gantry. A high dose rate beam for this technique is acquired through a head modification, which allows easy removal of the radiation field flattener. Because of these modifications, a number of changes and additions were required to the linac interlock system, including a complete new chain of interlocks for use with the stereotactic technique.
