Once validated, the model can then be used to generate an expected PET image from the treatment plan for comparison to the image acquired during treatment, which will assist in the development of methods for directly estimating the delivered dose from the measured positron-annihilation map.}, pages = {8--8}, title = {NEMA-NU 2-2012 VALIDATION OF A GEANT4 MODEL OF IN-BEAM PET FOR HEAVY-ION THERAPY}, volume = {49}, year = {2019} }
