Validation of a Monte Carlo Framework for Out-of-Field Dose Calculations in Proton Therapy

Proton therapy enables to deliver highly conformed dose distributions owing to the characteristic Bragg peak and the finite range of protons. However, during proton therapy, secondary neutrons are created, which can travel long distances and deposit dose in out-of-field volumes. This out-of-field ab...
