Calculating Weighting Factors for Mixing Megavoltage Photon Beams to Achieve Desirable Dose Distribution in Radiotherapy

BACKGROUND: In radiotherapy, low-energy photon beams are better adapted to the treated volume, and the use of high-energy beams can reduce hot spots in the radiation therapy. Therefore, mixing low and high energies with different ratios can control the rate of hotspots, as well as the dose distribut...
