Surface scanning for 3D dose calculation in intraoperative electron radiation therapy
Abstract Background Dose calculations in intraoperative electron radiation therapy (IOERT) rely on the conventional assumption of water-equivalent tissues at the applicator end, which defines a flat irradiation surface. However, the shape of the irradiation surface modifies the dose distribution. Ou...
