Spatially fractionated proton therapy: A Monte Carlo verification
Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (or grid) using megavoltage x-rays is a relatively new method of treating bulky (>8 cm) malignant tumors. Unlike the conventional approach in which the entire tumor is targeted with a nearly uniform radiation field, in grid the incident radiation is collim...
