EP-1861: Predicted Reduction in Fatal Second Cancers by Proton Therapy of Childhood Intracranial Tumors

ConclusionThis study demonstrates that MC calculations based on VSMs allow obtaining reliable absolute doses for kV imaging protocols in a reasonable computing time.All these developments are currently integrated into a dedicated software for imaging dose prediction, which will also include the Tomotherapy MVCT imaging system [V.Passal et al., MCMA 2017 Napoli].This software will enable to study the magnitude of additional doses delivered by in-room X-Ray imaging positioning units during the course of a complete RT treatment.
