Abstract: BackgroundMonte Carlo (MC) simulations or measurements in anthropomorphic phantoms are recommended for estimating fetal dose in pregnant patients in radiotherapy. Among the many existing phantoms, there is no commercially available physical phantom representing the entire pregnant woman.PurposeIn this study, the development of a low‐cost, physical pregnant female phantom was demonstrated using commercially available materials. This phantom is based on the previously published computational phantom.MethodsThree… Show more
