Comparison of TG‐43 dosimetric parameters of brachytherapy sources obtained by three different versions of MCNP codes
Monte Carlo simulations are widely used for calculation of the dosimetric parameters of brachytherapy sources. MCNP4C2, MCNP5, MCNPX, EGS4, EGSnrc, PTRAN, and GEANT4 are among the most commonly used codes in this field. Each of these codes utilizes a cross-sectional library for the purpose of simulating different elements and materials with complex chemical compositions. The accuracies of the f...

در این رساله با معرفی سقف های psscb متشکل از ترکیب ورق های فولادی ذوزنقه ای و تخته های سیمانی الیافی به عنوان سقف های پیش ساخته (سازگار با سیستم سازه ای قاب های فولادی سبک) به بررسی پارامترهای موثر بر صلبیت سقف، پرداخته می شود. در تحقیق حاضر ابتدا به مدل سازی دو نمونه سقف آزمایش شده، به روش اجزاء محدود با استفاده از نرم افزار تحلیلی abaqus ver 6.10 پرداخته شده است. نمونه های ساخته شده تحت اعما...
Determination of TG-43 Dosimetric Parameters for Photon Emitting Brachytherapy Sources
Objective: Brachytherapy sources are widely used for the treatment of cancer. The report of Task Group No. 43 (TG-43) of American Association of Physicists in Medicine is known as the most common method for the determination of dosimetric parameters for brachytherapy sources. The aim of this study is to obtain TG-43 dosimetric parameters for 60Co, 137Cs, 192Ir and 103Pd brachyt...
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 کاملDosimetric parameters of three new solid core I‐125 brachytherapy sources
Monte Carlo calculations and TLD measurements have been performed for the purpose of characterizing dosimetric properties of new commercially available brachytherapy sources. All sources tested consisted of a solid core, upon which a thin layer of 125I has been adsorbed, encased within a titanium housing. The PharmaSeed BT-125 source manufactured by Syncor is available in silver or palladium co...
