TG 142 identifies resources for testing the imaging capabilities of modern linacs

Task Group 142 recommends tests of the imaging capabilities of modern linacs that are used for Image Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT). Three recent publications by the American College of Radiology may be of interest in connection with the philosophy and performance of these tests. Links are provided below.

• Practice Guideline for Image Guided Radiation Therapy
• Practice Guideline for the Performance of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
• ACR Technical Standard for Medical Physics Performance Monitoring of Image-Guided External Beam Radiation Therapy
