Simultaneous optimization of photons and electrons for mixed beam radiotherapy.
The aim of this work is to develop and investigate an inverse treatment planning process (TPP) for mixed beam radiotherapy (MBRT) capable of performing simultaneous optimization of photon and electron apertures. A simulated annealing based direct aperture optimization (DAO) is implemented to perform simultaneous optimization of photon and electron apertures, both shaped with the photon multilea...
متن کاملMonte Carlo modeling of ion beam induced secondary electrons.
Ion induced secondary electrons (iSE) can produce high-resolution images ranging from a few eV to 100keV over a wide range of materials. The interpretation of such images requires knowledge of the secondary electron yields (iSE δ) for each of the elements and materials present and as a function of the incident beam energy. Experimental data for helium ions are currently limited to 40 elements a...
متن کاملEvaluation of dose distribution of 12C ion beam in radiotherapy by FLUKA as a Monte Carlo simulation Code
Introduction: Nowadays, the use of heavy ion beams in cancer therapy have been developed worldwide. Materials and Methods: It requires accurate understanding of the complex processes of ion interaction with matter, as it is the calculation the relative dose & range of these ions in matter. In the present study we used FLUKA as a numerical Monte Carlo simula...
متن کاملInvestigation of penetration depth of 63Ni beta spectrum in silicon by Monte Carlo method and using MCNPX code
In this study, the energy spectrum of beta-nickel 63 is considered as the total energy spectrum, average energy of the spectrum, and maximum spectral energy for analyzing the penetration depth of silicon. Monte Carlo calculations were carried out using a MCNPX code in a given geometry; in the following, Stopping-Power for electrons with different energies in silicon was calculated using the EST...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of Photoneutron Source by MCNPX Monte Carlo Code for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy
Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...
