A unified method of calculating the dose rate and dose distribution for therapeutic x-ray beams.
There is a growing expectation that radiotherapy can be made more effective by conforming the dose distribution more closely to the volume of diseased tissue. Higher doses could then be given, without increasing the risks associated with the irradiation of the surrounding healthy tissue. The goal of...
