Reduction of superficial radiation dose with bolus in passive scattering proton beam therapy
PURPOSE: In passive scattering proton beam therapy, scattered protons from the snout and aperture increase the superficial dose, however, treatment planning systems (TPSs) based on analytic algorithms (such as proton convolution superposition) are often inaccurate in this aspect. This additional dos...
