Automatic 3D Monte-Carlo-based secondary dose calculation for online verification of 1.5 T magnetic resonance imaging guided radiotherapy

Background and purpose: Hybrid magnetic resonance linear accelerator (MR-Linac) systems represent a novel technology for online adaptive radiotherapy. 3D secondary dose calculation (SDC) of online adapted plans is required to assure patient safety. Currently, no 3D-SDC solution is available for 1.5T...
