Practical methods for improving dose distributions in Monte Carlo‐based IMRT planning of lung wall‐seated tumors treated with SBRT
Current commercially available planning systems with Monte Carlo (MC)‐based final dose calculation in IMRT planning employ pencil‐beam (PB) algorithms in the optimization process. Consequently, dose coverage for SBRT lung plans can feature cold‐spots at the interface between lung and tumor tissue. F...
