Electron Dose Distributions in Inhomogeneous Phantoms: a Monte Carlo Study
Dose distributions in different models of inhomogeneous phantoms irradiated with 3 19 MeV electron beams have been calculated using DOSXYZnrc/EGSnrc Monte Carlo code. The rectilinear 3D voxel phantoms, relevant for radiotherapy and clinical dosimetry, were built from ICRU soft tissue equivalent material in which was inserted a single layer of bone, lung, air or Titanium. Significant interface e...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulation of two 106Ru eye plaques in a new mathematical human eye model
BEBIG Ruthenium-106 ophthalmic plaques have been used for treatment of uveal melanoma, retinoblastoma, melanoma of the iris and other special applications for many years. The plaques consist of a thin film of 106Ru, a beta emitter, encapsulated in pure silver. The present work proposes a new mathematical eye model for ophthalmic brachytherapy dosimetry. This new mod...
متن کاملDose distribution evaluation of various dose calculation algorithms in inhomogeneous media
Background: Dose calculation algorithms play a very important role in predicting the explicit dose distribution. We evaluated the percent depth dose (PDD), lateral depth dose profile, and surface dose volume histogram in inhomogeneous media using calculation algorithms and inhomogeneity correction methods. Materials and Methods: The homogeneous and inhomogeneous virtual slab phantoms used in th...
متن کاملUnexpected changes of rat cervical spinal cord tolerance caused by inhomogeneous dose distributions.
PURPOSE The effects of dose distribution on dose-effect relationships have been evaluated and, from this, iso-effective doses (ED(50)) established. METHODS AND MATERIALS Wistar rats were irradiated on the cervical spinal cord with single doses of unmodulated protons (150 MeV) to obtain sharp lateral penumbras, using the shoot-through technique, which employs the plateau of the depth-dose prof...
متن کاملGeneralized contact distributions of inhomogeneous Boolean models
The main purpose of this work is to study and apply generalized contact distributions of (inhomogeneous) Boolean models Z with values in the extended convex ring. Given a convex body L ⊂ Rd and a gauge body B ⊂ Rd such a generalized contact distribution is the conditional distribution of the random vector (dB(L,Z), uB(L,Z), pB(L,Z), lB(L,Z)) given that Z ∩L = ∅, where Z is a Boolean model, dB(L...
