OEDIPE : A Personalised Internal Dosimetric Tool Associating Voxel- Based Phantoms with Monte Carlo Calculation for Nuclear Medicine
In nuclear medicine and particularly in internal radiotherapy, one of the major challenges is to determine the dose for each patient. Current internal dosimetric estimations are based on the Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) formalism and use standard mathematical models. These standard models are often far from a given patient morphology and do not allow to perform patient-specific dosime...
متن کاملOEDIPE: a New Numerical Tool for the Personalized Internal Dose Assessment
Within the framework of radiation protection or internal radiotherapy, one of the major stakes is to determine in a most realistic possible way the dose received by every patient. In this purpose, a tool called OEDIPE, French acronym for “tool for personalized internal dose assessment”, was developed at IRSN associating numerical voxelized phantoms, created with anatomical images, and Monte Car...
متن کاملDevelopment of a mouse computational model for MCNPx based on Digimouse® images and dosimetric assays
The aim of this study was to create and test a new mice 3D-voxel phantom named DM_BRA for mice and human first-estimation radiopharmaceutical dosimetry. Previously, the article reviews the state-ofart in animal model development. Images from Digimouse CT database were used in the segmentation and on the generation of the voxelized phantom. Simulations for validation of the DM_BRA model was perf...
متن کاملModelling Radiation Transport in Voxel Geometries with the Monte Carlo Code Mcnpx
Numerical methods for the simulation of radiation transport, in particular Monte Carlo techniques, are playing a fundamental role in the field of dosimetry for radiation protection. For the last 30 years or so, reference quantities have been since about 30 years calculated relying on mathematical analytical human phantoms representative of the standard man. These calculations, in large part bas...
متن کاملA Computational Dosimetric Comparison between Mcnpx and Attila of the Mammosite Radiation Therapy System
The need for more accurate radiation therapy treatment planning is driving improvements in radiation transport calculations. In particular, the inclusion of patient specific anatomy and tissue density heterogeneities will be very important, particularly for treatment modalities that involve strong material discontinuities. The study presented here compares the application of the deterministic c...
