Absorbed dose assessment due to proton and neutron particles in tumoral and healthy tissues of liver in proton-therapy using Monte Carlo method
Proton therapy is one of the best methods of treatment for liver cancer. In this research, the main parts of proton therapy system, with passive scattering nozzle, including range-modulating wheel, energy-compensated contoured scatterer and collimators were simulated. Then the proton absorbed dose i...
