Sensitivity analysis of an asymmetric Monte Carlo beam model of a Siemens PRIMUS accelerator

The assumption of cylindrical symmetry in radiotherapy accelerator models can pose a challenge for precise Monte Carlo modeling. This assumption makes it difficult to account for measured asymmetries in clinical dose distributions. We have performed a sensitivity study examining the effect of varyin...
