Treatment Head parts diagram. Numbers match the table below; each box is one top-level part or assembly with what it contains.
#PartQtyWhat it does
1 X-ray Target 1× Tungsten target that converts electron energy to bremsstrahlung X-rays in photon mode.
2 Flattening Filter 1× Conical metal filter that evens the forward-peaked X-ray fluence into a uniform field.
3 Primary Collimator 1× Fixed tungsten cone defining the maximum beam aperture leaving the target.
4 Transmission Ion Chamber 1× Dose monitor
5 Collimator Jaws 1× Secondary collimator
6 Head Shielding 1× Lead and tungsten shielding limiting leakage radiation outside the useful beam.
