Radiotherapy dose calculation algorithms are essential components of modern treatment planning, ensuring that the prescribed radiation dose conforms as closely as possible to a patient’s tumour while ...

Dose conversion: A deep learning model predicts the Monte Carlo (MC) dose distribution from the pencil beam (PB) dose, for a prostate cancer case. (a) PB dose distribution; (b) converted dose ...

Loss of estrogen receptor in recurrent breast cancer is associated with poor response to endocrine therapy. The BSA-based method of dose calculation was adopted without adequate investigation of its ...

A method for the calculation of the radiation dose rate to extracorporeal blood flowing through a cylindrical beta irradiator is developed. Turbulent and laminar blood flow are treated separately.

How many of us give a “full” dose of chemotherapy to an obese patient—even in the curative setting? Dose calculation in the obese is a confusing but important puzzle for the oncologist and is becoming ...

Monte Carlo 3D dose-check calculations help clinical physicists maintain confidence in their patient-specific QA for hard-to-treat disease indications Independent viewpoint: given the clinical ...

Bulk drug calculations for different types of active moieties and drugs require different calculations and labeling. Performing calculations for the formulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms and ...
