Abstract
The aim of this presentation is to analyse the mechanical and dosimetrical parameters of the linear accelerator used in stereotactic radiosurgery. The use of the thimble and Markus chambers, TL and film in small field dosimetry are investigated. To determine the optimal irradiation technique and dose distribution, the dose volume to healthy tissue is considered.
