Quantification of the uncertainties within the radiotherapy dosimetry chain and their impact on tumour control
Background and purpose: Dose delivered during radiotherapy has uncertainty arising from a number of sources including machine calibration, treatment planning and delivery and can impact outcomes. Any systematic uncertainties will impact all patients and can continue for extended periods. The impact...
