Alanine/EPR dosimetry was applied to measure dose distributions during electron arc therapy treatments generated by electron beams moving isocentrically over a stated arc. Alanine-polyethylene pellets, prepared at ISS according to the NIST recipe, inserted in a homogeneous cylindrical and anthropomorphic phantoms, were used. Preliminary, alanine response to static electron beams in the (6-20) MeV nominal energy range was studied. Then alanine dosimetry was applied to determine the dose versus the gantry angle at a reference point in a cylindrical homogeneous phantom. Finally, arc therapy treatment planning verification was performed in anthropomorphic phantom.
