| Research Abstract |
We have developed a calculation method of monitor units for proton therapy as a product of a factor related to measured data of a part of beam delivery condition (beam energy, SOBP width, range shift) and the other factor related to patient-specific condition calculated by a simplified Monte Carlo calculation. We found effectiveness of the method by showing that it reproduces the measured data within a maximum error of 1.6% for 32 different irradiations to prostate carcinoma treated by proton beam.
