On the dosimetric impact of inhomogeneity management in the Acuros XB algorithm for breast treatment
BACKGROUND: A new algorithm for photon dose calculation, Acuros XB, has been recently introduced in the Eclipse, Varian treatment planning system, allowing, similarly to the classic Monte Carlo methods, for accurate modelling of dose deposition in media. Aim of the present study was the assessment o...
