Abstract
  • Radiation therapy treatment planning and optimization requires accurate, precise, and fast computation of absorbed dose to all critical and target volumes in a patient. A new method for speeding up the computational costs of Monte Carlo dose calculations is described that employs a hybrid classical-quantum computing architecture. Representative results are presented from computer simulations using modified and unmodified versions of the Dose Planning Method (DPM) Monte Carlo code. The architecture and methods may be extended to sampling arbitrary discrete probability density functions using quantum bits with application to many fields.
