Article Synopsis
- The Total Skin Electron Therapy (TSET) uses high-energy electrons to treat the entire skin surface, with treatment in a sleeping position for better dose distribution and patient comfort.
- This study investigates the dose uniformity of TSET using the sleeping Stanford technique on a Rando phantom with specific angles and positions for electron irradiation.
- The results indicate high uniformity in dose distribution (within 100 ± 25%) and good dose accuracy (6%), making TSET in a sleeping position ideal for elderly and disabled patients, with a suggestion to use a flattening filter for improved uniformity.
