A simplified and effective off-axis Winston-Lutz for single-isocenter multi-target SRS.

Purpose: To safely perform single-iso multi-target (SIMT) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), clinics must demonstrate SRS delivery accuracy for off-axis targets. The traditional Winston-Lutz (W-L) was widely adopted because it provides a simple and accurate solution for testing radiation-isocenter coincidence that uses a static target, enables testing arbitrary treatment angles, and does not require expensive commercial phantoms. The current noncommercial tests are cumbersome and insufficiently accurate.
