Photon dose calculations in inhomogeneous media

A series of experiments were carried out to simulate air cavities in a polystyrene phantom. Results of experiments were compared to calculations done using three treatment planning systems employing Batho, modified Batho and the equivalent tissue-air-ratio (ETAR) methods for inhomogeneity correct...
