Figure 1. Random sampling of patients stratified on type and laterality of operation was carried out in four departments. Dose distributions were recalculated with various methods as indicated. AAA, anisotropic analytical algorithm; CCA, enhanced collapsed cone algorithm; FMU, fixed monitor units; PB, pencil beam algorithm; S. size, sample size.
