Optimization of photon beam energy in aperture‐based inverse planning

Optimal choice of beam energy in radiation therapy is easy in many well‐documented cases, but less obvious in some others. Low‐energy beams may provide better conformity around the target than their high‐energy counterparts due to reduced lateral scatter, but they also contribute to overdosage of pe...
