Background: Interest in spatial fractionation radiotherapy has exponentially increased over the last decade as a significant reduction of healthy tissue toxicity was observed by mini-beam irradiation. Published studies, however, mostly use rigid mini-beam collimators dedicated to their exact experimental arrangement such that changing the setup or testing new mini-beam collimator configurations becomes challenging and expensive.
Purpose: In this work, a versatile, low-cost mini-beam collimator was designed and manufactured for pre-clinical applications with X-ray beams.
