Dosimetric evaluation of Acuros XB Advanced Dose Calculation algorithm in heterogeneous media
BACKGROUND: A study was realised to evaluate and determine relative figures of merit of a new algorithm for photon dose calculation when applied to inhomogeneous media. METHODS: The new Acuros XB algorithm implemented in the Varian Eclipse treatment planning system was compared against a Monte Carlo...
