Generation and application of Monte Carlo calculated beamlet dose distributions in radiation therapy

Generation and application of Monte Carlo calculated beamlet dose distributions in radiation therapy

The use of beamlets as a dose calculation tool in Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) treatment planning is widespread and well documented. A beamlet can simply be defined as the contribution of radiation passing through a particular geometrically defined subdivision of a given linear accel...
