Treatment planning with a 2.5 MV photon beam for radiation therapy. [PDF]

J Appl Clin Med Phys, 2022
Abstract Purpose The shallow depth of maximum dose and higher dose fall‐off gradient of a 2.5 MV beam along the central axis that is available for imaging on linear accelerators is investigated for treatment of shallow tumors and sparing the organs at risk (OARs) beyond it.

Dosimetry of Continuous Random Motion in High Dose Rate Strontium-90 Plesiotherapy. [PDF]

Vet Radiol Ultrasound
ABSTRACT Strontium‐90 plesiotherapy delivers high doses of radiation to superficial lesions (<3 mm depth) with excellent sparing of deeper tissues. The sealed‐source applicator tip is circular and 8–10 mm in diameter. Larger treatment fields are treated with multiple overlapping fields. The applicator cannot conform to angular extensions of irregularly
