Dose distribution changes with shielding disc misalignments and wrong orientations in breast IOERT: a Monte Carlo – GEANT4 and experimental study

One of the most relevant risks in breast intraoperative electron radiotherapy (IOERT) is the incorrect positioning of the shielding disc. If such a setup error occurs, the treatment zone could receive a nonuniform dose delivery, and a considerable part of the electron beam could hit — and irradiate...
