Abstract
A 3D-printed bolus is being developed to deliver accurate doses to superficial cancers. In this study, flexible thermoplastic filaments, specifically PLA, TPU, PETG, and HIPS, were fabricated into boluses and then compared to commercial bolus for the variation of the dose elevation region of photon beams. The experimental results indicate that the maximum dose depth is similar, and the consistent trend of the percentage depth dose confirms the potential usage as a build-up bolus.
