Abstract
Results from the commissioning of the LLUMC (Loma Linda University Medical Center) beam switchyard and gantry are described. Measurements of the beam profile at numerous locations are compared with model predictions for three energies. On the basis of the beam profile and magnetic measurements, the extracted beam emittance and Twiss parameters are determined.<>
