Pre-measurement Preparation: Water Phantom
•
Some important checks
•
Detector moves parallel to the central axis of the beam
•
Detector moves parallel to the water surface
•
The origin of the scanning coordinate system is correct
•
Orientation of the detector is appropriate relative to the direction of
scanning
•
The reference detector does not perturb the measured dose
distribution
•
Source-to-surface distance is correct and does not change in time
