Skin dose enhancement from the application of skin-care creams using FF and FFF photon beams in radiotherapy: A Monte Carlo phantom evaluation
Skin-care cream is commonly applied to relieve skin redness in radiotherapy. However, using cream on the patient under the photon field would increase the skin dose in delivery. The aim of this study is to evaluate the dependences of skin dose enhancement on different beam and cream variables using...
