Comparison between the calculated and measured dose distributions for four beams of 6 MeV linac in a human-equivalent phantom

Radiation dose distributions in various parts of the body are of importance in radiotherapy. Also, the percent depth dose at different body depths is an important parameter in radiation therapy applications. Monte Carlo simulation techniques are the most accurate methods for such purposes. Monte Car...
