Energy Optimization And Calculation Of Dose Absorption Enhancement Factor In Photon Activation Therapy
Introduction: Secondary radiation such as photoelectrons, Auger electrons and characteristic radiations cause a local boost in dose for a tumor when irradiated with an external X-ray beam after being loaded with elements capable of activating the tumor, e.g.; I and Gd. Materials and Methods: In thi...
