A comparison of dosimetry measured in a noncylindrical Rando-Alderson phantom of the 2-field, 4-field, and 6-field total-skin electron-beam therapy techniques, with our dual-field rotational technique, revealed superior dosimetry and shorter treatment time for the latter.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009182	Mycosis Fungoides	A chronic, malignant T-cell lymphoma of the skin. In the late stages, the LYMPH NODES and viscera are affected.
D011882	Radiotherapy, High-Energy	Radiotherapy using high-energy (megavolt or higher) ionizing radiation. Types of radiation include gamma rays, produced by a radioisotope within a teletherapy unit; x-rays, electrons, protons, alpha particles (helium ions) and heavy charged ions, produced by particle acceleration; and neutrons and pi-mesons (pions), produced as secondary particles following bombardment of a target with a primary particle.
