A comparative study of clinically used fast Monte Carlo dose engines for proton therapy
All commissioned codes we examined demonstrated acceptable 3D GPR across all patients and treatment sites tested. Although the CPU MC code was commissioned using a double 2D Gaussian model, the single 2D Gaussian model used in the GPU codes proved to be sufficiently effective, yielding a high GPR.
