125 / 1245
Creating a clinically useable electron beam
Warsaw 2017
50
Traditionally a single foil
technique was used
To get a broad enough beam
the single foil has to be quite
thick
Significant energy loss and
spread.
The introduction of a secondary
foil downstream reduces these
problems since the total foil
thickness can be reduced
considerably.
