The use of a digital camera to simulate irregularly shaped electron treatment fields was investigated. The simulation of electron treatment fields, drawn on patient's skin or shell, is required to fabricate cerrobend inserts for defining the beam apertures. The use of the digital camera made the pro
## Abstract A significant component of the total dose delivered to tumor and surrounding tissue during a radiation treatment arises from the scattering of the primary beam. Accounting for this component accurately and efficiently is a necessity. In this study we investigate a method for calculating
