Dosimetric Comparison of treatment plans computed with finite size pencil beam and monte carlo algorithms using the incise™ multileaf collimator-equipped cyberknife® system

Purpose: InCise™ multileaf collimator (MLC) was introduced for CyberKnife® (CK) Robotic Radiosurgery System (CK-MLC) in 2015, and finite size pencil beam (FSPB) was the only available dose computation algorithm for treatment plans of CK-MLC system. The more advanced Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculation...
