Conclusions: The IntraLine accelerator meets all of the objectives set for the demonstrator. However, future clinical application of this device may possibly require new mechanical and electrical schemes aiming at minimizing the device's size and weight. Current work also focuses on the device's motion support control system, as well as its treatment planning system.
