Abstract
We have developed soft rubber (SR) bolus that can be shaped in real-time by heating flexibly and repeatedly. This study investigated whether the SR bolus could be used as an ideal bolus, such as not changing of the beam characteristics and homogeneity through the bolus and high plasticity to adhere a patient in addition to real-time shapeable and reusability, in electron radiotherapy. Percentage depth doses (PDDs) and lateral dose profiles...
