    Sammanfattning : In recent years, the use of optimization algorithms in radiation therapy planning has increased dramatically. All optimization algorithms as well as most modern implementations of conventional therapy planning, use energy deposition kernels as a fundamental part of the calculations. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : In radiotherapy, cancer is treated with ionizing radiation, most commonly bremsstrahlung photons from electrons of several MeV. Secondary electrons produced in photon-interactions results in dose deposition. The treatment response is low for low doses, raises sharply for normal treatment doses and saturates at higher doses.
