Nuclear halo measurements for accurate prediction of field size factor in a Varian ProBeam proton PBS system

PURPOSE: For pencil‐beam scanning proton therapy systems, in‐air non‐Gaussian halo can significantly impact output at small field sizes and low energies. Since the low‐intensity tail of spot profile (halo) is not necessarily modeled in treatment planning systems (TPSs), this can potentially lead to...
