DOI: 10.1002/acm2.13652
Abstract: Abstract Matching multiple linacs to common baseline data allows patients to be treated, and patient‐specific quality assurance (PSQA) to be completed on any linac. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) requires higher levels of accuracy and quality… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/jmp.jmp_12_21
Abstract: Flexibility and efficiency in a radiotherapy department with different linear accelerators (linacs) can be improved if they are dosimetrically equivalent, and there is no need of plan or patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) modification. From 2012… read more here.
