Transverse dose profile simulation of extruded lines for a 3D printed models for superficial skin cancer therapy

The short-range and sharp dose fall-off of beta particles in tissue make them an interesting option for use in the radiation therapy of superficial skin tumors. This can be used to protect bony or other sensitive structures located right beneath the tumor. In a previous study, we studied the feasibi...
