Benchmarking of Monte Carlo model of 6 Mv photon beam produced by Siemens Oncor® linear accelerator: determination of initial electron beam parameters in comparison with measurement
Introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the initial electron beam parameters for Monte Carlo model of 6MV photon beam produced by Siemens Oncor® linear accelerator. Materials and Methods: In this study, the EGSnrc Monte Carlo user codes BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc were used. The beamnrc code were used for modelling of a 6 MV photon beam produced by...
متن کاملA Monte Carlo Simulation of Photon Beam Generated by a Linear Accelerator
ntroduction: Monte Carlo simulation is the most accurate method of simulating radiation transport and predicting doses at different points of interest in radiotherapy. A great advantage of the Monte Carlo method compared to the deterministic methods is the ability to deal accurately with any complex geometry. Its disadvantage is the extremely long computing time r...

متن کاملThe photon beam characteristics of linear accelerator equipped with additional narrow beam collimator
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) using external beams of radiation has become an important method of treatment of small intracranial lesions such as arteriovenous malformations, benign or malignant primary tumours and isolated metastases. In this technique, a high dose of radiation is delivered to the stereotactically localized lesion, the adjacent normal brain tissue being minimaly irradiated.
متن کاملBeam Characterization of 10-MV Photon Beam from Medical Linear Accelerator without Flattening Filter
AIM This work investigated the dosimetric properties of a 10-MV photon beam emitted from a medical linear accelerator (linac) with no flattening filter (FF). The aim of this study is to analyze the radiation fluence and energy emitted from the flattening filter free (FFF) linac using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. MATERIALS AND METHODS The FFF linac was created by removing the FF from a linac ...
