Development of isodose curves for A 6 mv x-ray beam

Abstract

In this thesis radiation distribution of 6 Mv x-ray beam in a water phantom is developed. The method is based on a simple empirical equation and the assumption that the x-ray source is a point source. This leads to a simple equation for the calculation and plotting of the isodose curves. the charts obtained for two fields, 6*6 and 12*12 cm{sup 2} show good agreement with the previous data used in the isotope and radiation centre, Khartoum hospital. It is suggested that further development should be carried out by writing a computer program for all the fields. (Author) 14 refs. , 9 tabs. , 34 figs.
