Dosimetric dependence of the dimensional characteristics on a lead shield in electron radiotherapy: a Monte Carlo study

This study investigates the dosimetric dependence of the dimension of a lead (Pb) layer for shielding using clinical electron beams with different energies. Monte Carlo simulations were used to generate phase space files for the 4, 9 and 16 MeV electron beams produced by a Varian 21 EX linear accele...
