Abstract

In this paper, a two-dimensional electron beam dose calculational algorithm implented for use in a two-dimensional radiation therapy planning system is described. The 2-D electron beam calculations have been in use clinically for a few decades. Our algorithm uses Age-diffusion model based int the Boltzman Transport Equation. Our implementation provides convenient user interface associated with electron beam therapy planning and displays radiation dose distribution according to different electron energy on patient images.
