Pitfalls in the beam modelling process of Monte Carlo calculations for proton pencil beam scanning

OBJECTIVE: Monte Carlo (MC) simulations substantially improve the accuracy of predicted doses. This study aims to determine and quantify the uncertainties of setting up such a MC system. METHODS: Doses simulated with two Geant4-based MC calculation codes, but independently tuned to the same beam dat...
