Table IV.

Percent difference/DTA comparison between EPID converted dose planes to 2D diode array measurements for seven designed test fields (Varian linac) and two analysis criteria (% difference/DTA): 3%/3mm and 2%/2mm (DTA). The number of distinct diode measurement positions in the fields is shown, as some of these fields were quite small and did not cover many diodes in the MapCHECK array.
