EGSnrc Monte Carlo-aided dosimetric studies of the new BEBIG 60Co HDR brachytherapy source
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to obtain the dosimetric parameters of the new BEBIG (60)Co brachytherapy source following by TG-43U1 recommendation with appropriate electron cutoff energy (0.521 MeV). MATERIAL AND METHODS The new BEBIG (60)Co brachytherapy source is used to calculate the TG-43U1 parameters. EGSnrc-based Monte Carlo simulation code has been used to calculate the radial d...
متن کاملA Comparison of the Dosimetric Parameters of Cs-137 Brachytherapy Source in Different Tissues with Water Using Monte Carlo Simulation
Introduction After the publication of Task Group number 43 dose calculation formalism by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM), this method has been known as the most common dose calculation method in brachytherapy treatment planning. In this formalism, the water phantom is introduced as the reference dosimetry phantom, while the attenuation coefficient of the sources in the...

متن کاملA Monte Carlo Study on the Effect of Various Neutron Capturers on Dose Distribution in Brachytherapy with 252Cf Source
Background: In neutron interaction with matter and reduction of neutron energy due to multiple scatterings to the thermal energy range, increasing the probability of thermal neutron capture by neutron captures makes dose enhancement in the tumors loaded with these materials. Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate dose distribution in the presence of 10B, 157Gd and 33S neutron...
متن کاملMonte Carlo dosimetric characterization of the IsoAid ADVANTAGE P103d brachytherapy source
For roughly 25 years, 125I and 103Pd sources have been used in the treatment of various malignant diseases such as prostate cancer. Various new sources have been marketed and produced to meet the demand for new sources to use in treatment. Recently, IsoAID LLC created the ADVANTAGE 103Pd source. Various dosimetric parameters must be determined to facilitate treatment planning using this source....
