Four-dimensional dosimetry validation and study in lung radiotherapy using deformable image registration and Monte Carlo techniques

Thoracic cancer treatment presents dosimetric difficulties due to respiratory motion and lung inhomogeneity. Monte Carlo and deformable image registration techniques have been proposed to be used in four-dimensional (4D) dose calculations to overcome the difficulties. This study validates the 4D Mon...
