The radiation therapy is applied on around 50% of the cancer patients. As we know, before implementing a radiation treatment planning system in the clinic, the dose-calculation measurement must be validated using rigorous, clinically relevant criteria [1]. Percent Depth Doses (PDD), Dose Profile (DP), Open Collimator Factor (OCF) etc., are measured for all numbers of square fields for Treatment Planning System XiO, version 4.7, for 6 and 15 MV photons energies and for 15กใ, 30กใ, 45กใ, 60กใ wedge, which were employed to obtain the profiles in any depth. The measurements were conducted also for different energies of electron beam and TPS calculation algorithms.
