A single-source photon source model of a linear accelerator for Monte Carlo dose calculation
PURPOSE: To introduce a new method of deriving a virtual source model (VSM) of a linear accelerator photon beam from a phase space file (PSF) for Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A PSF of a 6 MV photon beam was generated by simulating the interactions of primary electrons wi...
