Optimization of Monte Carlo Code for Clinical Simulation of Electron Beams
uptake distribution is flat across much of the sphere, with only a thin skin. This flat uptake behavior does not changewithmotion up to amplitudes of 10 mm . We have also developed a matrix of correction factors to the flat behavior for motion amplitudes and tumor volumes beyond these limits. Conclusion: Our data demonstrate for the first time, that true heterogeneity of NSCLC tumors can be mod...

background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the application of the monte carlo technique to calculate and analysis of dosimetric parameters for electron beams used in radiotherapy. this technique is based on statistical method and has a powerful role in different radiotherapy aspects. materials and methods: the simulated medical linear accelerator was the varian clinac 2100c. the e...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation of Electron Beams produced by LIAC Intraoperative Radiation Therapy Accelerator
Background: One of the main problems of dedicated IORT accelerators is to determine dosimetric characteristics of the electron beams. Monte Carlo simulation of IORT accelerator head and produced beam will be useful to improve the accuracy of beam dosimetry.Materials and Methods: Liac accelerator head was modeled using the BEAMnrcMonte Carlo simulation system. Phase-space files were generated at...
متن کاملEvaluation of Electron Specific Absorbed Fractions in Organs of Digimouse Voxel Phantom Using Monte Carlo Simulation Code FLUKA
Background: For preclinical evaluations of radiopharmaceuticals, most studies are carried out on mice. Values of electron specific absorbed fractions (SAF) have had vital role in the assessment of absorbed dose. In past studies, electron specific absorbed fractions were given for limited source target pairs using older reports of human organ compositions.Objective: Electron specific absorbed fr...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation for Treatment Planning Optimization of the COMS and USC Eye Plaques Using the MCNP4C Code
Introduction: Ophthalmic plaque radiotherapy using I-125 radioactive seeds in removable episcleral plaques is often used in management of ophthalmic tumors. Radioactive seeds are fixed in a gold bowl-shaped plaque and the plaque is sutured to the scleral surface corresponding to the base of the intraocular tumor. This treatment allows for a localized radiation dose delivery to the tumor with a ...
