Independent evaluation of the effectiveness of IsoCal in improving image center accuracy on Varian TrueBeam and Clinac machines

Modern medical linear accelerators (linacs) are often equipped with image guidance systems that are capable of megavolt (MV), kilovolt (kV), planar, or volumetric imaging. On Varian TrueBeam linacs, the isocenter accuracies of the imaging systems are calibrated with a procedure named IsoCal. On Clin...
