A comprehensive dosimetric study of Monte Carlo and pencil‐beam algorithms on intensity‐modulated proton therapy for breast cancer

PB algorithms are commonly used for proton therapy. Previously reported limitations of the PB algorithm for proton therapy are mainly focused on high‐density gradients and small‐field dosimetry, the effect of PB algorithms on intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for breast cancer has yet to be...
