Photon interaction coefficients for the colorectal cancer tissue

Purpose: The application of radiotherapy to the treatment of cancer requires the knowledge of photon interaction coefficients such as mass attenuation (μm) and mass energy-absorption coefficients (μen/ρ). Although these coefficients have been determined for different tissues, it is lacking for the c...
