Investigation on Patient/Compensator Scatter Factor for Monitor Unit Calculation in Proton Therapy

PURPOSE: It is the goal of this study to use both Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and the pencil beam dose algorithm (PBA) in the treatment planning system to investigate Patient scatter factor (PSF) and Compensator scatter factor (CSF) for calibrating the dose per monitor unit (DMU) for a passive scatt...
