Dosimetric comparison of pencil beam and Monte Carlo algorithms in conformal lung radiotherapy
PURPOSE: In this study, lung radiotherapy target volumes as well as critical organs such as the lungs, spinal cord, esophagus, and heart doses calculated using pencil beam (PB) and Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm‐based treatment planning systems (TPSs) were compared. The main aim was the evaluation of ca...
