Gamma analysis considerations

Local or global dose deviation can be used

Global: deviation expressed as percentage of maximum or prescribed

dose

Local: deviation expressed as percentage of local dose

Global dose deviation more forgiving, especially in low-dose region

Gamma analysis fails extensively in the low-dose region, but this may not be

of interest: cut-off often applied

Can be performed in 2D or 3D: slightly better pass rates with 3D

Adjustment for the linac output of the day?

Adjust spatial registration of dose distributions for best result?
