A collapsed-cone convolution radiotherapy dose calculation algorithm written in Python/Cython.

This project is currently in early experimental development. Expect the code to change dramatically over the coming months.

Inspiration has been drawn from [Cho et al (2012)](https://doi.org/10.3938/jkps.61.2073) and [Yang et al (2002)](https://doi.org/10.1118/1.1500767).
