Notes: ρ and ρiso are the physical density along beam axis across the patient and up to isocenter, respectively; z and ziso are the geometrical patient thickness and the isocenter depth along beam axis; w and wiso are the radiological paths along the beam axis; L is the equivalent square field size, Diso,TPS is the calculated dose by TPS at isocenter and Diso is the mean measured dose.
