    • We propose that during the factory testing of the linac, rather than simply confirming that the beam falls within the permissible ranges set out in the standard, the beam is in fact adjusted towards a standard signature. A new (or existing) linac could then be paired to a new linac, or to an existing linac, such as one that it is to operate alongside or one that it is to replace. Treatment plans would then be transferable between such pairs of linacs. In addition, the standard signature to which the linacs were approximated could be placed towards the centre of the permitted ranges, to produce linacs that were more reliable over the very long term. This requires a linac that has automatically adjustable parameters, so that a suitable programmed computer is able to monitor the output of the linac and adjust its operating parameters. We therefore provide a radiation source comprising a linear accelerator, beam control circuitry for the linear accelerator, an electronic control apparatus for the control circuitry arranged to adjust properties thereof, and a monitor for detecting properties of the radiation beam produced by the linear accelerator, wherein the control apparatus is adapted to retain a set of beam properties and periodically activate the accelerator, measure the current beam properties via the monitor, compare the measured beam properties to the retained beam properties, and potentially adjust the control circuitry properties to align the beam properties towards the retained beam properties. The beam properties that are measured may include at least one of beam flatness and beam width. The retained beam properties can be the properties of the beam produced by the linear accelerator when new, or the properties of a standard beam. The control apparatus is preferably arranged to send a message if the difference between the measured beam properties and the retained beam properties exceeds a threshold. It may also send a message to a remote location if the difference between the measured beam properties and the retained beam properties exceeds a second threshold.
