Kernel-Based Methods
Combine an analytical calculation of the primary photon
interactions with the subsequent transport and energy
deposition by secondary particles described by
pre-calculated
kernels
Point-spread kernel: Absorbed dose from both secondary
electrons and photons around the interaction point
Calculated by Monte Carlo in infinite medium of water
