Determining TG-43 brachytherapy dosimetry parameters and dose distribution for a 131Cs source model CS-1
Background: Monte Carlo determination of TG-43 brachytherapy dosimetry parameters and dose distribution calculation for 131Cs source model CS-1 are presented in this study. Materials and Methods: The dose distribution was calculated around the 131Cs Model CS-1 located in the center of 30 cm ×30 cm ×30 cm water, and soft tissue phantoms cube using MCNP code by Monte Carlo method. The percentage ...

متن کاملDetermining TG-43 brachytherapy dosimetry parameters and dose distribution for a 131Cs source model CS-1
Theoretical and experimental dosimetric studies have been supplied useful information on the dependence of the brachytherapy source geometry and materials (1-5). Usually, Monte Carlo method is used to define dose distribution function, the radial dose variation, and the dose calculation close to the source in brachytherapy. Chen et al. (6). calculated the distribution of absorbed dose around co...
متن کاملTG-60 dosimetry parameters calculation for the β-emitter 153Sm brachytherapy source using MCNP
Background: The formalism recommended by Task Group 60 (TG-60) of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) is applicable for β sources. Radioactive biocompatible and biodegradable 153Sm glass seed without encapsulation is a β- emitter with a short half life and delivers a high dose rate to the tumor in the millimeter range. In this work the dosimetry parameters of the ...
متن کاملErratum: "TG-43 U1 based dosimetric characterization of model 67-6520 Cs-137 brachytherapy source".
PURPOSE Brachytherapy treatment has been a cornerstone for management of various cancer sites, particularly for the treatment of gynecological malignancies. In low dose rate brachytherapy treatments, 137Cs sources have been used for several decades. A new 137Cs source design has been introduced (model 67-6520, source B3-561) by Isotope Products Laboratories (IPL) for clinical application. The g...
