Highlights
- •Dose distribution was simulated by the developed approximate irregular field dose distribution program.
- •The program combined with a compensation bed to simulate the clinical application of radiotherapy.
- •The present findings indicate that it is possible to reach a gamma passing rate exceeded 70% under respiratory motion.
