A technique is described for forming an optical laser cross‐hair image for use as a radiotherapy sidelight. The technique is developed from a concept introduced earlier by which a line image is formed from a laser beam using a cylindrical lens. By using two cylindrical lenses and appropriate reflectors, two line images can be made to form a cross.
