Improved dose homogeneity using electronic compensation technique for total body irradiation

In total body irradiation (TBI) utilizing large parallel‐opposed fields, the manual placement of lead compensators has conventionally been used to compensate for the varying thickness throughout the body. The goal of this study is to pursue utilizing the modern electronic compensation (E‐comp) techn...
