Nuclear Halo Effect and Field Size Factor for Pencil-Beam Scanning Proton Therapy
In proton therapy systems with pencil-beam scanning, output of Halo effect is not necessarily included in Treatment Planning System (TPS). Halo effect (low-intensity tail) can significantly affect a patient’s dose distribution. The output of this dose depends on the field size being irradiated. Alth...
