Figures

  • Figure 1.
    Figure 1.

    Adult female Rando phantom.

  • Figure 2.
    Figure 2.

    Calculated positions and comparison of calculated dose by helical tomotherapy treatment planning machine and measured dose of radiophotoluminescence glass dosimeter (RPLGD) in a lung lesion using a Rando phantom. These photographs were taken from a cranial direction (mock tumor was located in the left lung). Higher dose, 105% of calculated, shown in red; acceptable dose ratio 95-105%, shown in white; lower dose, less than 95% of calculated shown in blue.

  • Figure 3.
    Figure 3.

    Stereotactic body radiotherapy plan generated by treatment planning system for mock lung tumor. The prescribed dose is 10 Gy in five fractions.
