Convolution‐based modified Clarkson integration (CMCI) for electron cutout factor calculation
Electron therapy is widely used to treat shallow tumors because of its characteristic sharp dose fall-off beyond a certain range. A customized cutout is typically applied to block radiation to normal tissues. Determining the final monitor unit (MU) for electron treatment requires an output factor for the cutout, which is usually generated by measurement, especially for highly irregular cutouts....
متن کاملClinical Comparison of Pencil Beam Convolution and Clarkson Algorithms for Dose Calculation
Purpose: The purpose of this work is to study and quantify the differences in calculated dose computed with two algorithms available in treatment planning systems: Pencil Beam Convolution and Clarkson. Material and Methods: Four different types of treatment cases were analyzed: lung, head and neck, brain and prostate. For each case, the volume definition was based on a clinical CT-scan acquisit...
متن کاملA Modified Multi Time Step Integration for Dynamic Analysis
In this paper new implicit higher order accuracy (N-IHOA) time integration based on assumption of constant time step is presented for dynamic analysis. This method belongs to the category of the multi time step integrations. Here, current displacement and velocity are assumed to be functions of the velocities and accelerations of several previous time steps, respectively. This definition causes...
متن کاملCalculation the phantom scatter factor for the linear accelerators device
Introduction: In the last few decades, a lot of monte carlo codes have been introduced for medical applications. this is important because through simulation, we are fully independent of the spectral scattering factor that we are not able measure in real terms. The effect of the radiation energy, the dimension of the radiation field, the sensitive volume of the ion chamber on t...
متن کاملDigital Images Inpainting using Modified Convolution Based Method
Reconstruction of missing parts or scratches of digital images is an important field used extensively in artwork restoration. This restoration can be done by using two approaches, image inpainting and texture synthesis. There are many techniques for the two pervious approaches that can carry out the process optimally and accurately. In this paper the advantages and disadvantages of most algorit...
