Selecting Optimal Proton Pencil Beam Scanning Plan Parameters to Reduce Dose Discrepancy between Discrete Spot Plan and Continuous Scanning: A Proof-of-Concept Study

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Proton beam therapy delivered via pencil beam scanning is an advanced method for treating cancer. Two types of scanning modes are available for this method: discrete spot scanning (DSS) and continuous scanning. Continuous scanning has some advantages over DSS including improved proto...
