energy fluence of an accelerator electron beam.

Energy fluence of an accelerator electron beam and dose fall off.

IT DOSE NOT FALL OFF ACCORDING THE ISL. The dose measured at dmax point in a phantom, by varying the SSD, roughly follows (to better than 2%) the ISL for small changes in distance (say within about 5 cm), but not with respect ot the target position, but with respect to a point much closer than the target. This apparent distance, which is also a function of field size, must be experimentally determined for every electron beam quality of the machine (See Khan 2003 for more details)
