[Gate-users] Depth dependence of fluence to investigate electron beam buildup dose discrepancy

[G Tom]

HI all,

Does anyone have any ideas how to produce the graph of fluence vs depth and
"planar" fluence vs depth using FluenceActor in Gate for a simulated
electron beam ? These are example graphs from the ICRU report 35 which I
attached.


Thank you.
