Abstract

Design and dosimetry characteristics of a commercial applicator system for intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) utilizing ELEKTA Precise accelerator have been previously reported. The system is geometrically more complex than the standard electron applicators used for external beam therapy. Moreover, the geometry is different from the reference conditions used in various dosimetry protocols. The purpose of this work is to validate the measured dosimetry data by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations.
