[Neutron therapy in the G.D.R.III. Estimation of dose distribution in phantome (author's transl)].
This report describes measurements in a tissue equivalent phantom. At first the depth-dose curve is determined. Then the distribution of dose orthogonal to the central beam is determinated. On the base of these results single field distributions are constructed and also distributions in case of irradiations from both sides. Any influence of different ti-sues (fat, bone) to the distribution of isodose could not be pointed out. Distributions of isodose from Co60-moving fields added to the distributions of neutrons are described.
