To investigate the feasibility of proton therapy planning using stopping power ratio (SPR) maps directly generated from spectral CT raw data, and to perform a comparative evaluation of dose ...
Introduction Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is one of the most clinically-challenging toxicities and dose-limiting factors during and/or after thoracic radiation therapy for oesophageal squamous ...
Our purpose was to assess the dosimetric effect of switching from the analytical anisotropic algorithm (AAA) to Acuros XB (AXB), with dose-to-medium (Dm) and dose-to-water (Dw) reporting modes, in ...
To evaluate, in terms of dosimetric accuracy and calculation efficiency, the implementation of a graphic processing unit (GPU)-based Acuros XB dose calculation engine within version 15.5 of the Varian ...
ABSTRACT: Purpose: The dosimetric accuracy of the recently released Acuros XB advanced dose calculation algorithm (Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA) is investigated for single radiation fields ...
