Brief Summary
The utility of PEREGRINE Monte Carlo calculations for radiation treatment planning in a clinical setting will be assessed by comparing results with other fully three-dimensional programs. ROB will investigate PEREGRINE for clinical use at NCI in collaboration with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL).
