A patient is being treated on a 10 MV linear accelerator at 100 SSD with a reference dose rate of 0.997 cGy/MU. The collimator setting is 12 x 12 with a scatter factor of 1.005. The blocked field has an equivalent factor square of 6 x 6 with a phantom scatter of 0.995. The dose to be delivered is to a depth of 6.5 cm with a percentage depth dose of 81.3. The prescribed dose is 250 cGy per fraction. The doctor orders a parallel opposed AP/PA. What is the MU for each portal?
