Abstract
A system for radiotherapy includes an accelerator of an electron beam, an imaging apparatus, a control unit and a radiation dose sensor connected to the control unit equipped with a program configured to execute the steps: setting a first intensity of the electron beam, according to a predefined image of a target zone, the intensity to be emitted in a first radiation; operating said accelerator to emit the first radiation being a fraction of the first intensity; detecting a real intensity during the first radiation by the radiation dose sensor; acquiring an image of the zone; calculating an intermediate intensity according to the image acquired in the step and according to the real intensity; and comparing the first intensity with the intermediate intensity to calculate a final beam intensity for a subsequent second radiation.
