Scope and Contents

Contents

A number of treatment‐planning systems still use conventional correction methods for body inhomogeneities. Most of these methods (power law method, tissue—air ratio (TAR), etc.) consider only on‐axis points, rectangular fields, and inhomogeneous slabs covering the whole irradiating field. A new method is proposed that overcomes the above limitation...
