Interpretation of in-air output ratio of wedged fields in different measurement conditions
Background: The collimator scatter factor (Sc) is one of the most important parameters in monitor unit (MU) calculation. There are several factors that impact Scvalues, including head structures, backscatter in dose monitoring chambers, and wedges. The objective of this study was to investigate the...
