Using linear accelerators and appropriate collimators, treatments of predefined high localized radiation doses can be concentrated in small volumes inside the patient. This can be used to treat tumors in otherwise difficult reachable zones of the patient, such as inside the head. In order to avoid unnecessary damage to surrounding healthy tissue, the treatment ...
