Soft tissue and water substitutes for megavoltage photon beams: An EGSnrc‐based evaluation [PDF]
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, 2016 In this work, soft‐tissue equivalence of water, polystyrene, PMMA and water equivalence of polystyrene, and PMMA has been assessed for multiple megavoltage photon beams and field sizes. EGSnrc based Monte Carlo (MC) codes, BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc are used for the linac head modeling and the phantom dose calculations, respectively. Percentage depth doses (

Performance evaluation of a new type of commercial silicon detectors for photon beam dosimetry
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Background Modern radiotherapy relies on advanced treatment techniques that utilize a large number of small fields, for which maintaining dosimetric accuracy is often challenging. Most vendors have introduced microdetectors suitable for small field dosimetry. Sun Nuclear has developed two silicon diodes with a sensitive volume of 0.35 mm3 that
