Linear energy transfer (LET) distribution outside small radiotherapy field edges produced by 6 MV X-rays

2023-05-05

Abstract excerpt

In modern radiotherapy with photons, the absorbed dose outside the radiation field is generally investigated. But it is well known that the biological damage depends not only on the absorbed dose but also on LET. This work investigated the dose-average LET (L,D) outside several small radiotherapy fields to provide information that can help for better evaluating the biological effect in organs at risk close to the...
