This study presents a technique requiring relatively simple supporting devices and protection accessories for treating conditions like mycosis fungoides in which a uniform radiation dose to the whole body can be achieved by using the regular largest electron cone instead of HDRe[Formula: see text] mode in one treatment course. The regular cone total skin electron therapy technique presented in this study is able to deliver a uniform radiation dose to the patient’s skin surface. The result is satisfying when compared with the High Dose Rate e[Formula: see text] (HDRe[Formula: see text]) Stanford Six Field Technique.
