For IMRT planning we offer a full 3D collapsed cone convolution superposition dose calculation algorithms whose accuracies has been validated on clinical data. For 3D conformal planning we offer, Fast Photon – which is a TMR and OCR based calculation as well as Clarkson scatter algorithm. Starting version 4.4 we also offer the convolution family of dose calculations for forward planning. These calculations take into account boluses, wedges, blocks and other accessories while performing full 3D dose calculations.
