Monte Carlo analysis of energy deposition and X-ray fluence in cylindrical anode systems. [PDF]
J Appl Clin Med PhysAbstract Background Cylindrical anode X‐ray systems are increasingly used in multisource imaging; however, electron beam interactions with the curved anodes cause geometric distortions that alter energy deposition and X‐ray emission. Understanding these effects is key to optimizing system performance.
