Abstract:Purpose: Image guided treatment of lung provides the ability to deliver dose precisely to the target, however, lung dose calculation is often difficult and might be the weakest link now in the chain of lung IGRT. The purpose in this work is to find out the accuracy of a common TPS system in lung dose calculation. Method and Materials: So far lung dose measurements have been done only in slab geometry and for a single beam. In this work, we used a realistic lung phantom and delivered all fields of realistic IMR… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
