摘要：
This work presents an automated method for comprehensively analyzing EPID images acquired for quality assurance of RapidArc (R) treatment delivery. In-house-developed software has been used for the analysis and long-term results from measurements on three linacs are presented. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
