Measurement and action protocol
EPID dosimetry results from NKI* based on 5547 patients
(16986 fractions)
%Isocentre difference <5%
Gamma <1 >70%
NKI experience is ~90% of patients will be within criteria
ICRU 83:
5 % was the original ICRU requirement for accuracy of delivery at the
ICRU Reference Point (ICRU, 1993).
For high-gradient (>20 %/cm) regions, the accuracy of DTA should be
3.5 mm
In the future, the recommended accuracy criteria might be made more
stringent
