Monte Carlo investigation of collapsed versus rotated IMRT plan verification
IMRT QA requires, among other tests, a time-consuming process of measuring the absorbed dose, at least to a point, in a high-dose, low-dose-gradient region. Some clinics use a technique of measuring this dose with all beams delivered at a single gantry angle (collapsed delivery), as opposed to the beams delivered at the planned gantry angle (rotated delivery). We examined, established, and opti...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Calculations Supporting Patient Plan Verification in Proton Therapy
Patient's treatment plan verification covers substantial amount of the quality assurance (QA) resources; this is especially true for Intensity-Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT). The use of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in supporting QA has been widely discussed, and several methods have been proposed. In this paper, we studied an alternative approach from the one being currently applied clinically...

متن کاملEvaluation of the RtDosePlan Treatment Planning System using Radiochromic Film and Monte Carlo Simulation
Introduction: GafChromic EBT films are one of the self-developing and modern films commercially available for dosimetric verification of treatment planning systems (TPSs). Their high spatial resolution, low energy dependence and near-tissue equivalence make them suitable for verification of dose distributions in radiation therapy. This study was designed to evaluate the dosimetric parameters of...
متن کاملMonte Carlo cross validation
In order to choose correctly the dimension of calibration model in chemistry, a new simple and effective method named Ž . Monte Carlo cross validation MCCV is introduced in the present work. Unlike leave-one-out procedure commonly used in Ž . chemometrics for cross validation CV , the Monte Carlo cross validation developed in this paper is an asymptotically consistent method in determining the ...
