Dose prediction accuracy of collapsed cone convolution superposition algorithm in a multi-layer inhomogenous phantom

Purpose: Dose prediction accuracy of dose calculation algorithms is important in external beam radiation therapy. This study investigated the effect of air gaps on depth dose calculations computed by collapsed cone convolution superposition (CCCS) algorithm. Methods: A computed tomography (CT) sc...
