Abstract
The behavior of the dosage distributions produced by synchronous shielding techniques is examined. Shielding of sensitive structures is obtained only at the expense of dose uniformity in the high-dose region. Uniformity can be improved only by shaping the open part of the beam with specially-constructed wedge filters.Keywords
