Purpose: Irradiation cones by using backscatter electrons are made for the treatment of superficial small lesions of skin, oral cavity, and rectum where a significant dose gradient and maximum surface dose is desired.
Methods and Materials: Backscatter electrons are produced from the primary electron
beams form the linear accelerators. The design consists of a cylindrical cone that has a
thick circular plate of high atomic number medium (Pb or Cu) attached to the distal
end, and the plate can be adjusted the reflected angle. Primary electrons strike the metal
plate perpendicularly and produce backscatter electrons that reflect through the lateral
hole for treatment. Using film and a parallel plate ion chamber, backscatter electron dose
characteristics are measured.
Results: The depth dose characteristic of the backscatter electron is very similar to that
of the hard x-ray beam that is commonly used for the intracavitary and superficial
lesions. The basckscatter electron energy is nearly constant and effectively about 1.5
MeV from the clinical megavoltage beams. The backscatter electron dose rate of 35~85
cGy/min could be achieved from modern accelerators without any modification, and the
depth in water of 50% depth dose from backscatter electron located at 6mm for 45¡Æ
angled lead scatter. The beam flatness is dependent on the slit size and the depth of
treatment, but is satisfactory to treat small lesions.
Conclusions: The measured data for backscatter electron energy, depth dose flatness
dose rate and absolute dose indicates that the backscatter electrons are suitable for
clinical use.
