The influence of lateral beam profile modifications in scanned proton and carbon ion therapy: a Monte Carlo study

Scanned ion beam delivery promises superior flexibility and accuracy for highly conformal tumour therapy in comparison to the usage of passive beam shaping systems. The attainable precision demands correct overlapping of the pencil-like beams which build up the entire dose distribution in the treatm...
