Mantle Lab Questions

The document contains 7 multiple choice questions about radiation therapy calculations including: 1) calculating the tissue maximum ratio (TMR) for a 100cm SAD PA field to deliver 100cGy at 8cm depth 2) calculating the TMR for a left axilla point at 8.4cm depth from a 23.5x23.5cm PA field 3) determining which calculation point would receive the most dose from combined AP and PA fields with no additional blocking
