Empirical formula for the prediction of off axis ratios and isodose curves for a treatment planning system

Empirical formula for the prediction of off axis ratios and isodose curves for a treatment planning system

A mathematical model has been developed for prediction of off axis ratio (OAR), using Wood - Saxon term used to represent nuclear potential. This method has been satisfactorily applied for predicting OAR in case of <sup>60</sup>Co &#947; -rays and high energy X-rays. Investigations...
