Primo software as a tool for Monte Carlo simulations of intensity modulated radiotherapy: a feasibility study

BACKGROUND: IMRT provides higher dose conformation to the target and dose sparing to surrounding tissues than 3DCRT. Monte Carlo method in Medical Physics is not a novelty to approach dosimetric problems. A new PENELOPE based code named PRIMO recently was published. The most intriguing features of P...
