Advanced proton beam dosimetry part II: Monte Carlo vs. pencil beam-based planning for lung cancer

BACKGROUND: Proton pencil beam (PB) dose calculation algorithms have limited accuracy within heterogeneous tissues of lung cancer patients, which may be addressed by modern commercial Monte Carlo (MC) algorithms. We investigated clinical pencil beam scanning (PBS) dose differences between PB and MC-...
