An investigation on quantitative detector characteristics of novel flexible skin dosimeter using Monte Carlo simulation method

چکیده
Novel lead oxide-based flexible dosimeters with superior performance were experimentally tested for electron therapy. However, absorbed/transmitted primary particle fraction and secondary radiation distribution from the dosimeter surface have not been reported. These features should be specified to improve dosimeter’s reliability medical applications. Hence, absorbed fraction, transmitted radiations distributions of skin under incident 6 MeV investigated by pyPenelope Monte Carlo Simulation. The results demonstrated that generated irradiation probabilities are significantly high enhance therapeutic dose abnormally. In addition, angular scattered irradiations is low. No abnormal changes observed in energy electrons. it can concluded designed structure has promising potential used as beam

Method of Moments Using Monte Carlo Simulation
We present a computational approach to the method of moments using Monte Carlo simulation. Simple algebraic identities are used so that all computations can be performed directly using simulation draws and computation of the derivative of the log-likelihood. We present a simple implementation using the Newton-Raphson algorithm, with the understanding that other optimization methods may be used ...

Introduction Polymer gel dosimeters offer a practical solution to 3D dose verification for conventional radiotherapy as well as intensity-modulated and stereotactic radiotherapy. In this study, EGSnrc calculated and PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter measured dose profiles from single shot irradiation with 18 mm collimator of Gamma Knife in homogeneous and inhomogeneous phantoms were compared with eac...
متن کاملInvestigation and Comparison of Metal Nanoparticles on Dose Enhancement Effect in Radiotherapy Using Monte Carlo Simulation Method
Introduction: The main goal of radiation therapy is destroying the tumor so that the surrounded healthy tissues have received the least amount of radiation at the same time. In recent years, the use of nanoparticles has received much attention due to the increasing effects they can have on the deposited dose into the cancer cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of nanopart...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation Method
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods such as Variational Monte Carlo, Diffusion Monte Carlo or Path Integral Monte Carlo are the most accurate and general methods for computing total electronic energies. We will review methods we have developed to perform QMC for the electrons coupled to another MC simulation for the ions. In this method, one estimates the Born-Oppenheimer energy E(Z) where Z repr...
متن کاملAttenuation Correction in SPECT during Image Reconstruction using an Inverse Monte Carlo Method: A Simulation Study
Introduction: The main goal of SPECT imaging is to determine activity distribution inside the organs of the body. However, due to photon attenuation, it is almost impossible to do a quantitative study. In this paper, we suggest a mathematical relationship between activity distribution and its corresponding projections using a transfer matrix. Monte Carlo simulation was used to find a precise tr...
