[HTML][HTML] Tackling range uncertainty in proton therapy: development and evaluation of a new multi-slit prompt-gamma camera (MSPGC) system

Y Ku, S Choi, J Cho, S Jang, JH Jeong, SH Kim… - Nuclear Engineering …, 2023 - Elsevier
In theory, the sharp dose falloff at the distal end of a proton beam allows for high conformal
dose to the target. However, conformity has not been fully achieved in practice, primarily due …
