Technical Considerations
•
Radiation safety
Scattered electrons in the OR : not an issue
Radiation leakage: the Mobetron design minimizes
it (no bending magnets)
Has a beam stopper that tracks the gantry
movements
PDD comparison between 12 MeV Beams
(
Varian Clinac 2100
/
Mobetron
)
X-ray contamination is significantly lower in
the Mobetron Beam (
0,7
% vs
2
%)
