To evaluate the accuracy of the Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm (AAA) and Acuros XB (AXB) implemented in the Eclipse treatment planning system for small-field dosimetry in low-density lung, with emphasis on their performance in lung stereotactic body radiati...

Accurate small‑field dosimetry is strongly influenced by detector volume averaging, density effects, and perturbations. Solid‑state detectors such as microSilicon and microdiamond are widely used due to minimal correction requirements; however, limited data e...

Large variation up to 8% in field output factor (FOF) among various investigators has been reported. This is critical for modern radiotherapy techniques. Field definition based on FWHM (Sclin) and S (jaw based) has been used but debated. This study investigat...

Lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is now standard of care for oligometastatic and small pulmonary lesions, where very small radiation fields are used. Although inhomogeneity correction algorithms have been well validated for larger fields, limited da...
