Evaluation of the gamma dose distribution comparison method

The γ tool was developed to quantitatively compare dose distributions, either measured or calculated. Before computing γ, the dose and distance scales of the two distributions, referred to as evaluated and reference, are renormalized by dose and distance criteria, respectively. The renormalization a...
