Dosimetric Impact on the Flattening Filter and Addition of Gold Nanoparticles in Radiotherapy: A Monte Carlo Study on Depth Dose Using the 6 and 10 MV FFF Photon Beams

Purpose: This phantom study investigated through Monte Carlo simulation how the dose enhancement varied with depth, when gold nanoparticles (NPs) were added using the flattening filter-free (FFF) photon beams in gold NP-enhanced radiotherapy. Method: A phantom with materials varying from pure water...
