Estimating Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Direct Power Consumption of Linear Accelerator–Based External Beam Radiation Therapy

PURPOSE: Climate change is one of the direst health threats that humanity faces. We aim to estimate the carbon dioxide (CO(2)) emissions associated with the energy usage from linear accelerator (LINAC)-based external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for the most common cancer diagnoses. METHODS AND MAT...
