Towards magnetic-field-modulated radiotherapy (MagMRT) with an MR-LINAC—a Monte Carlo study

The feasibility of magnetic-field-modulated radiotherapy (MagMRT) with an MR-LINAC was investigated by studying the effects of dose enhancement and reduction using a transverse magnetic field with a longitudinal gradient applied along a photon radiation beam. Geant4 simulation toolkit was used to pe...
