Sistema de Planificación de Tratamientos de Radioterapia para Aceleradores Lineales de Partículas (LinAc) basado en el método Monte Carlo

Abstract

The main motivation that has led to the increasingly rapid development of techniques for prevention and treatment of cancer in the last decade has been its presence in the lists of main causes of death: more than 10 million diagnoses every year at a global scale and more than 160,000 in Spain. In this context, the clinical implementation of Radiotherapy Treatment Planning Systems (RTPS) has played a crucial role.
