Abstract
A comprehensive quality assurance (QA) program should aim to ensure the safest and highest achievable accuracy of radiation treatment by establishing a systematic approach in setting up and in maintaining the program. The goal of QA is to reduce the uncertainty in SRT treatment and to set an error tolerance limit for SRT treatment. The overall uncertainty of an SRT system is the combination of uncertainties resulting from several components, which mainly consist of uncertainties in the:
