[Rapid production of non-porous shielding blocks in radiotherapy]. / Schnelle Anfertigung von lunkerfreien Strahlausblendungsblöcken in der Strahlentherapie.

The production of shielding blocks nearly free from air inclusions (pipes), as they are necessary for example in case of mantle field irradiations, is often not possible in a satisfactory manner by means of conventional techniques; furthermore it is time-consuming. The authors present a new method for a fast production of shielding blocks without pipes for radiotherapy.
