Application of dose kernel calculation using a simplified Monte Carlo method to treatment plan for scanned proton beams
Full Monte Carlo (FMC) calculation of dose distribution has been recognized to have superior accuracy, compared with the pencil beam algorithm (PBA). However, since the FMC methods require long calculation time, it is difficult to apply them to routine treatment planning at present. In order to impr...
