Neutron dose from a 6-MV X-ray beam in radiotherapy

Abstract Although a 6-MV X-ray beam is employed clinically as a non-neutron-producing beam, no studies have reported how few neutrons are produced from a 6-MV beam. This study aimed to theoretically deduce the neutron dose from a 6-MV beam using Monte Carlo simulations for the notification of safety...
