van der Heyden B, Almeida I, Vilches-Freixas G, Van Beveren C, Vaniqui A, Ares C, et al.
Acta Oncol . 2019 Oct; 59(2):171-179. PMID: 31646923
Monte Carlo proton dose calculations requires mass densities calculated from the patient CT image. This work investigates the impact of different single-energy CT (SECT) and dual-energy CT (DECT) to density...

Persoon L, Nijsten S, Podesta M, Snaith J, van Elmpt W, Verhaegen F
Med Phys . 2017 May; 39(6Part6):3664. PMID: 28517595
Purpose: During a radiotherapy treatment course the dose delivery can be influenced by a number of factors, e.g. anatomical changes over time. Thiscan Result in discrepancies between planned and delivered...
