Standardizing Monte Carlo simulation parameters for a reproducible dose-averaged linear energy transfer

Objective: Dose-averaged linear energy transfer (LETD) is one of the factors which determines relative biological effectiveness (RBE) for treatment planning in proton therapy. It is usually determined from Monte Carlo (MC) simulation. However, no standard simulation protocols were established for sa...
