It can be operated on any kind of microcomputer which has an internal memories of more than 512kB.The ESS software package would be leading the office operation to an automatic data processing period and the field work free from the tedious, repeated data treating and mapping, so that the engineers would have more time to analyse and interpret field data. Undoubtedly, it is of benefit to improving the relibility of the geological evaluation.展开更多

In this preliminary study, a quantitative investigation of the similarity in the basic photon and electron dosimetry data from the Siemens Oncor linear accelerators at our hospital(Children's Cancer Hospital, Cairo, Egypt) was reported. Methods: The output factor(OF), wedge factors(WF), percentage depth dose(PDD), and beam profile for the 6 and 10 MV photon beams were measured. Results: The measured output factors varied by less than about 1% for each field size. The difference between the maximum and minimum PDD values at each depth was less than about 1%. The difference between the beam flattnes and symetry was no more than 1% at all off-axis distances. For electron the results showed that the PDD, OF, and the beam profiles were matched within 1% differences. Conclusion: These results strongly suggest that it is feasible to establish one reference photon and electron dosimetry data set for the two machines and nominal energies.展开更多
