Density scaling artifacts in dosimetry calculations
Quality assurance dosimetry often requires the comparison of measured doses with those calculated by a treatment-planning system for phantoms of density other than 1.000 g/cm3. The presence of an artifact in the Pinnacle3 treatment-planning system can lead to systematic errors in such cases. These errors are also present, although reduced in magnitude, in heterogeneous media.
متن کاملDosimetry Calculations of Radiopharmaceuticals
Abstract. The goal of this project is to determine the absorbed dose of radiation to a patient using 99mTc-MAA as a tracer for a lung scan using the MIRD formula accounting only for the radiation dose contributed by the target organ. The radiation dose for other organs to the target organ is considered negligible as the uptake of 99mTc-MAA from other organs is less than 1%. In addition to calcu...
متن کاملScaling of N-body calculations
We report results of collisional N -body simulations aimed to study the N -dependance of the dynamical evolution of star clusters. Our clusters consist of equal-mass stars and are in virial equilibrium. Clusters moving in external tidal fields and clusters limited by a cut-off radius are simulated. Our main focus is to study the dependence of the lifetimes of the clusters on the number of clust...
متن کاملRecent progress in linear-scaling density functional calculations with plane waves and pseudopotentials: the ONETEP code.
The ONETEP program employs the single-particle density matrix reformulation of Kohn-Sham density functional theory to achieve computational cost and memory requirements which increase only linearly with the number of atoms. As the code employs a plane wave basis set (in the form of periodic sinc functions) and pseudopotentials it is able to achieve levels of accuracy and systematic improvabilit...
