Abstract

This paper presents a study of three different proceedings of the “Mantle Technique", irradiating a Rando-Alderson phantom with Cobalt-60. The dose distribution have been calculated in points of the cervical, axilar, mediastinumand supraclavicular chains, in six points of the spinal cord, and in a shielded lung parenquima. Using thermoluminescent dosimeters of 7LiF, measurements of dosis have been done in these points, confirming the calculated values.
