Evaluation of target dose inhomogeneity in breast cancer treatment due to tissue elemental differences

BACKGROUND: Monte Carlo simulations were run to estimate the dose variations generated by thedifference arising from the chemical composition of the tissues. METHODS: CT datasets of five breast cancer patients were selected. Mammary gland was delineated as clinical target volume CTV, as well as CTV_...
