Tungsten filled 3D printed field shaping devices for electron beam radiation therapy.
<h4>Purpose</h4>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 alloys containing lead and cadmium. This is a highly toxic process with limited precision. This wor...
