Abstract
The first 22 MeV micron installation for radiation therapy is described with regard to the general design, the beam transport and the gantry. The first measurements of the electron depth dose curves indicate that the distributions obtained are superior to those of most betatrons and linear accelerators. For the same electron beam energy the depth of dose maximum and the 90 or 80 per cent dose level is considerably increased. The 20.9 MV photon beam has similar depth dose characteristics as a 20 MV betatron.
