Influence of jaw setting in the determination of stereotactic small-field output factors with different detectors

Conclusion: Output factors obtained with different detectors show high differences in the smallest field size for all collimating systems. This study confirms that the position of X and Y jaw above the tertiary collimator significantly influences the small-field output factor.
