Radiation interaction parameters of dosimetric importance for some commonly used compensators in IMRT using Monte Carlo simulation code

Radiotherapy is one of the commonly used treatments for cancer. A compensator is a device used in intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) treatments to compensate for the irregularities of the body. One can provide a more uniform distribution of dose for the treatment of tumors using compensators in...
