Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Flattening filter free (FFF) beams have recently been employed in commercial C-arm linear accelerators. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in the dose distribution and dosimetric parameters between FFF and flattening filter (FF) beams. Our data provides several insights into the different dosimetric parameters of FFF and FF beams.
