The LA48 IMRT head phantom1 consists of an acrylic cylinder, 22 cm in height and 20 cm in diameter, which accommodates the LA48 linear chamber array. This combination makes it possible to measure the IMRT dose profile in the axis of the cylindrical phantom, which can be attached to the stereotactic system and to the treatment couch. The LA48 linear array is connected to the MULTIDOS dosemeter with extender ME48 and operated by using a PC software.

The phantom can be attached to the stereotactic system and the couch by a special holding device.
