Generation of 3D reference dosimetric datasets towards adoption of model-based dose calculations for permanent implant prostate brachytherapy. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose This work aims to create and validate a comprehensive set of test cases and 3D reference dosimetric datasets for model‐based dose calculation algorithms (MBDCAs) in permanent implant prostate brachytherapy. These test cases address the limits of the standard TG‐43 formalism towards improving dose evaluations in prostate cancer ...
