Monte Carlo Simulation of Electron Beams produced by LIAC Intraoperative Radiation Therapy Accelerator
Background: One of the main problems of dedicated IORT accelerators is to determine dosimetric characteristics of the electron beams. Monte Carlo simulation of IORT accelerator head and produced beam will be useful to improve the accuracy of beam dosimetry.Materials and Methods: Liac accelerator head was modeled using the BEAMnrcMonte Carlo simulation system. Phase-space files were generated at...
متن کاملTotal skin electron therapy (TSET): Monte Carlo Simulation and implementation
Introduction: Total skin electron irradiation technique is used in treatment of the mycosis fungoid. The implementation of this technique requires non-standard measurements and complex dosimetry methods. Operating procedures for total skin electron irradiation and its dosimetry vary in different radiation therapy centers in the world. In this article, validation of TSET techniq...

متن کاملAccelerated Event-by-event microdosimetry Monte Carlo simulations of low energy electron and proton on a CUDA-enabled GPU
I.A. Physics interaction model For the event-by-event simulation of low-energy electron (9.7 eV-10keV) and proton (0.3-10MeV) tracking, a semi-theoretical model which combines aspects of the Bethe and binary-encounter theory has been employed. A brief overview of the model is presented below; for a detailed description one may consult Emfietzoglou et al 2000[1]. The differential cross-section (...
