Film based verification of calculation algorithms used for brachytherapy planning-getting ready for upcoming challenges of MBDCA

Purpose: Well-known defect of TG-43 based algorithms used in brachytherapy is a lack of information about interaction cross-sections, which are determined not only by electron density but also by atomic number. TG-186 recommendations with using of MBDCA (model-based dose calculation algorithm), acc...
