Dynamic splitting of Gaussian pencil beams in heterogeneity-correction algorithms for radiotherapy with heavy charged particles
Nobuyuki Kanematsu, Masataka Komori, Shunsuke Yonai +1
The pencil-beam model is valid only when elementary Gaussian beams are small enough with respect to lateral heterogeneity of a medium, which is not always the case in heavy charged…
Computational modeling of beam-customization devices for heavy-charged-particle radiotherapy
Nobuyuki Kanematsu, Shunsuke Yonai, Azusa Ishizaki +1
A model for beam customization with collimators and a range-compensating filter based on the phase-space theory for beam transport is presented for dose distribution calculation in…
The grid-dose-spreading algorithm for dose distribution calculation in heavy charged particle radiotherapy
Nobuyuki Kanematsu, Shunsuke Yonai, Azusa Ishizaki
A new variant of the pencil-beam (PB) algorithm for dose distribution calculation for radiotherapy with protons and heavier ions, the grid-dose spreading (GDS) algorithm, is propos…
