ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Disclosed is an X-ray interlock system which is designed for a linear accelerator having no electron beam bending system. The accelerator emits electron pulses which are directed to a target for generation of X-ray pulses. The interlock system con- tains an ionization chamber, a discriminator and a switch. The chamber is exposed to the X-ray pulses for measuring their intensity distribution. It comprises a control electrode and a plurality of electrode segments. The discriminator is connected for detect- ing energy inhomogeneities in the X-ray pulses. The switch which is operated by the discriminator is connected to switch the accel- erator on and off. The energy interlock system is adapted to be used with linear accelerators in medical treatment.
