DTU's Center for Nuclear Technologies (DTU Nutech) invites tenders for a complete, state-of-the-art radiotherapy accelerator system for research.
The medical linear accelerator system will constitute the main irradiation facility in a new laboratory for fundamental medical dosimetry to be established at DTU Nutech. The accelerator will be used for research, metrology, and university teaching relating to medical dosimetry of ionizing radiation and technologies of modern radiotherapy. Important research targets will be to develop traceable dosimetry and primary standards for the most modern types of radiotherapy, in particular radiotherapy using small fields. The accelerator should therefore have a highly stable output, a wide range of photon and electron energies and reflect the present state-of-the art within this field.
The accelerator will be located in a non-clinical, laboratory environment at the DTU Risø Campus and it will not be used for any kind of patient treatments. A therapy-level reference cobalt-60 source will be placed within the same shielded room as the accelerator.
