Monte-Carlo dosimetry for intraoperative radiotherapy using a low energy x-ray source
Résumé
Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is continuously gaining ground in cancer treatment. However, there is currently no planning system associated with these devices, which precludes patient-specific dose delivery optimization. The objective of this study was the development and validation of a Monte Carlo simulation (MCS)-based dosimetry platform using the Intrabeam™ system.
