Purpose Cherenkov emission (CE)‐based external beam dosimetry is envisioned to involve
the detection of CE directly in water with placement of a high‐resolution detector out of the …

Purpose Cherenkov emission (CE) is ubiquitous in external radiotherapy. It is also unique in
that it carries the promise of 3D, micrometer‐resolution, perturbation‐free, in‐water …

The dose measurements of the small field sizes, such as conical collimators used in
stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), are a significant challenge due to many factors including …

Purpose In previous work, we demonstrated that mixed electron‐photon radiation therapy
(MBRT) produces treatment plans with improved normal tissue sparing and similar target …

Purpose: This work evaluates Varian's electron phase–space sources for Monte Carlo
simulation of the TrueBeam for modulated electron radiation therapy (MERT) and combined …

Purpose To validate the dose measurements for two total skin irradiation techniques with
Monte Carlo simulation, providing more information on dose distributions, and guidance on …

Monte Carlo (MC) independent dose calculations are often based on phase‐space files
(PSF), as they can accurately represent particle characteristics. PSF generally are large and …

In the electron beam radiation therapy, customized blocks are mostly used to shape
treatment fields to generate conformal doses. The goal of this study is to investigate …

Purpose Skin collimation provides a sharp penumbra for electron beams, while the effect of
bremsstrahlung from shielding materials is a concern. This phantom study was conducted to …

Background Although intensity‐modulated radiation therapy and volumetric arc therapy
have revolutionized photon external beam therapies, the technological advances associated …
