Abstract
A radiation therapy apparatus includes a compensator with moving leaves to attenuate a radiation beam and a compensator verification system to determine if the attenuating leaves are moving in accordance with desired position signals. Two radiation intensity monitoring chambers, one chamber on either side of a patient within a radiation beam, produce beam fluence data used by a computer to construct radiation absorption images and to evaluate the functionality of the compensator. The absorption image can be used for both radiation dose verification and planning of suitable subsequent therapy sessions.
