Evaluation of electron Monte Carlo algorithm accuracy for dose calculations in extended source‐to‐surface distances electron beam therapy

The findings delineate the performance and limitations of the eMC algorithm under extended SSD conditions. These limitations should be considered in algorithm evaluation and quality assurance processes. The results provide guidance for algorithm assessment and may serve as a foundation for future studies to explore its clinical relevance in large-field electron beam therapy.

Abstract

The findings delineate the performance and limitations of the eMC algorithm under extended SSD conditions. These limitations should be considered in algorithm evaluation and quality assurance processes. The results provide guidance for algorithm assessment and may serve as a foundation for future studies to explore its clinical relevance in large-field electron beam therapy.
