On the Monte Carlo simulation of small-field micro-diamond detectors for megavoltage photon dosimetry.
Monte Carlo (MC) calculated detector-specific output correction factors for small photon beam dosimetry are commonly used in clinical practice. The technique, with a geometry description based on manufacturer blueprints, offers certain advantages over experimentally determined values but is not free of weaknesses. Independent MC calculations of output correction factors for a PTW-60019 micro-di...
متن کاملCharacterization of X-Ray Diamond Detector by Monte Carlo Method
The use of diamond as material for X-ray detector is subject of investigation and practice in radiotherapy, space and material science and technology. This paper presents the results of application of Monte Carlo method for simulation of photon transport through diamond detector. The aim is restitution and demonstrating of numerical technique for characterization of electrical properties for di...
متن کاملMonte-carlo Modeling of Silicon X-ray Detectors
A new 3-D Monte-Carlo code, X-Tracker, was developed to model internal events that occur as X-ray photons are absorbed within Si(Li) detectors. The goal was to model the performance of state-of-the-art detectors, including peak shapes, background and artifact peaks found in clean spectra from collimated radioactive and other X-ray sources. The model includes the influence of collimation, fr...
متن کاملCALDose_X online: Web-based, real time Monte Carlo calculations for patient dosimetry in X-ray diagnosis
CALDose_X 5.0 is a software package for the calculations of organ and tissue absorbed doses, as well as cancer risks for patients submitted to examinations of conventional radiography which can be downloaded from www.caldose.org. The program is based on conversion coefficients (CCs) between organ and tissue absorbed dose and measurable quantities, calculated with the MASH and FASH adult referen...
متن کاملA Monte Carlo study of x-ray fluorescence in x-ray detectors.
Advances in digital x-ray detector systems have led to a renewed interest in the performance of x-ray phosphors and other detector materials. Indirect flat panel x-ray detector and charged coupled device (CCD) systems require a more technologically challenging geometry, whereby the x-ray beam is incident on the front side of the scintillator, and the light produced must diffuse to the back surf...
