Robust Beam Selection Based on Water Equivalent Thickness Analysis in Passive Scattering Carbon-Ion Radiotherapy for Pancreatic Cancer

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Anatomical variations may distort the carbon-ion beam, leading to dose degradation during treatment. Thus, a robust-beam arrangement is important for patients with pancreatic cancer with carbon-ion radiotherapy. Our study aimed to investigate the angular dependency of water equivalen...
