It consists of 30 slits that are 25 um high, 30 mm wide, and 5 mm thick in the beam direction. The slits were made of 25um-thick polyimide sheets that were separated by 175um-thick tungsten sheets. We measured the dose distribution of a single microbeam with a mean energy of 125 keV by a scanning slit method using a phosphor coupled to a CCD camera and found that the ratios of the dose at the center of a microbeam to that at mid-positions to adjacent slits were 1050 and 760 for each side of the microbeam. This dose distribution was well reproduced by the Monte Carlo simulation code Phits.}, pages = {3252--3258}, title = {Dose distribution of a 125 keV mean energy microplanar x-ray beam for basic studies on microbeam radiotherapy}, volume = {35}, year = {2008} }
