Investigation of the Scaling Formula Accuracy for Poly-energetic Kernel Calculation in 6 MV Photon Beam

Investigation of the Scaling Formula Accuracy for Poly-energetic Kernel Calculation in 6 MV Photon Beam

Background: Dose distribution can be obtained from total energy released per unit mass (TERMA) and inhomogeneous energy deposition kernel (EDK) convolution. Since inhomogeneous EDK data is location-dependent, it is calculated by employing the density scaling method rather than Monte Carlo based user...
