Dosimetric evaluation of electron beam Monte Carlo isodoses distribution based on thermoluminescent dosimetry

Electron beams are applied in radiotherapy treatments where superficialized doses are desirable as well as deeper tissues sparing. Monte Carlo method has been recently implemented in the TPS as the algorithm for electron beam isodoses calculation at the National Institute of Cancer in Brazil. This w...
