I would like to clarify some of the typo and solution to the questions.
Physics
Q26- is it organ movement?
Answer given explaining the organ movement and IGRT is current trend of treatment.Yup, the answer should be D not E typo mistake.
Q28- do you use E/3 or E/4 to cover 90%? For electron energy selection
Rule of thumb X/5 is the Dmax,X/4 is the 90% isodose & X/3 80% isodose, surface dose is X+70% given in the textbook.
Rule of thumb X/5 is the Dmax,X/4 is the 90% isodose & X/3 80% isodose, surface dose is X+70% given in the textbook.
But, in daily practice 90% coverage is calculated by E/3.
Coming back to Q28, tumor depth 4cm and the answer selection given by the FRCR is 8,10,12,15,18MeV...there is no answer given that suit x 4 if using textbook formula of E/4.So, FRCR using E/3 =90% isodose line.

Electron energy selection calculated using the tumor depth not diameter of tumor as isodose is a join points of equal dose.- a planar representation of the dose distribution, meaning dose will be same at the same line/surface as long as the line/surface cover by the beam.
Q44 - CT simulator limitation. This question should be phrased like
CT simulator limitation except
CT simulator limitation except
answer is C.....Dont know what I.I stand for but given in the exam.
wedge is make of leads/steal
bolus is make of wax(tissue equivalent material)
Chemo:
Q24-Which has the least risk of neurotoxicity:
A. Gemcitabine
B. Oxaliplatin
C. Paclitaxel
D. Docetaxel
E. Vincristine
Answer: shd be A. typo given B as answer in the book but explanation clearly stated.
Common chemo-induced neurotoxicity agents are platinum(oxali), taxane(doce and pacli) and vinca alkaloids(vincristine)

Radbio:
Q 18In clonogenic assay, 500 cells plated and irritated, 78 colonies growth .Plating
efficacy of 55%, the surviving fraction is:
A. 15%
B. 20%
C. 28%
D. 35%
E. 80%
Answer: C
SF = Colony no rad/(Seeded cell no rad x PE)
= 0.283
= 28%
