For over 50 years, electron beams have been an important modality for providing an
accurate dose of radiation to superficial cancers and disease and for limiting the dose to …

This is a proof‐of‐concept study demonstrating the capacity for modulated electron radiation
therapy (MERT) dose distributions using 3D printed bolus. Previous reports have involved …

Abstract Three widely used Monte Carlo systems were benchmarked against recently
published measurements of the angular distribution of 13 MeV and 20 MeV electrons …

Purpose Electron radiotherapy is a labor-intensive treatment option that is complicated by
the need for field shaping blocks. These blocks are typically made from casting Cerrobend …

The main challenge in electron external beam radiation therapy with clinical accelerators is
the absence of integrated systems to form irregular fields. The current approach to provide …

Objective: The aim of This work to provide evaluation for the out-of-field dose with different
plan parameters as field size and depth using Markus ionization chamber detector in the …

Radiation therapy, also referred to as radiotherapy or radiation oncology, is one of the three
principal treatments for cancer, the other two being surgery and chemotherapy. In many …

A study is presented that characterizes megavoltage electron beams delivered through an
existing double-focused photon multi-leaf collimator (pMLC) using film measurements in a …

Electron beam radiotherapy is an accepted method to treat shallow tumors. However,
modulation of electrons to customize dose distributions has not readily been achieved …

The purpose of this paper is to assess the feasibility of delivering intensity-and energy-
modulated electron radiation treatment (MERT) by a photon multileaf collimator (xMLC) and …
