Monte Carlo vs. Pencil Beam based optimization of stereotactic lung IMRT

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the present study is to compare finite size pencil beam (fsPB) and Monte Carlo (MC) based optimization of lung intensity-modulated stereotactic radiotherapy (lung IMSRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A fsPB and a MC algorithm as implemented in a biological IMRT planning system w...
