초록

This paper presents the development process of a high-dose X-band linear accelerator (LINAC) for radiotherapy machines, specifically focusing on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT). The development process includes a multi-physics design, approach for the radio frequency cavity in the LINAC, with an emphasis on minimizing beam size and maximizing shunt impedance of the LINAC. Commissioning tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of the LINAC, which involved measurements of beam energy, beam size, beam current, and X-ray dose rate.

Commissioning tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of the LINAC, which involved measurements of beam energy, beam size, beam current, and X-ray dose rate.
