IEEE Real Time Conference 2009, Beijing Overview Dose calculation is an important part of radiotherapy treatment planning. When performing Monte Carlo simulations for the radiation dose delivered, the Compton interaction is considered. Monte Carlo methods give precise results but take high computational time. Modern FPGAs can be used for the Monte Carlo calculations with the required gain in speed and permit the real time building of maps of dose distribution. IEEE Real Time Conference 2009, Beijing
