Abstract

The concept of field equivalence for electron beams is examined using apencil beam theory applied to circular fields. It is shown that a circularfield can be found for a field of any size, shape and energy for which thedepth dose distribution is approximately equivalent. The usefulness of theconcept in clinical dosimetry is discussed.
