Report No. 067 - AAPM’s TG-51 protocol for clinical reference dosimetry of high-energy photon and electron beams (1999) Category: Reports This protocol represents a major simplification compared to the AAPM’s TG-21 protocol in the sense that large tables of stopping-power ratios and mass-energy absorption coefficients are not needed and the user does not need to calculate any theoretical dosimetry factors. Worksheets for various situations are presented along with a list of equipment required.
