1. I need to be efficient

Implementation corrections:

S

1sc

does not vary with θ within ΔΩ (Bθ,

bθ constant along transport line)

Kernel tilting problem less important as

E decreases

bθ evaluated recursively as a moving

average of previous and current step

S

1sc

generated per unit r is constant

within the same voxel (scerma does not

vary considerably within voxels)

Scerma gradient problem more

important close to a source

in high scerma gradient regions scerma

is estimated piecewise from a log-linear

interpolation over r
