Monte Carlo dosimetry of a new 90Y brachytherapy source
PURPOSE In this study, we attempted to obtain full dosimetric data for a new (90)Y brachytherapy source developed by the College of Chemistry (Sichuan University) for use in high-dose-rate after-loading systems. MATERIAL AND METHODS The dosimetric data for this new source were used as required by the dose calculation formalisms proposed by the AAPM Task Group 60 and Task Group 149. The active...
متن کاملThermoluminescent and Monte Carlo dosimetry of IR06‐P103d brachytherapy source
This work presents experimental dosimetry results for a new 103Pd brachytherapy seed, in accordance with the AAPM TG-43U1 recommendation that all new low-energy interstitial brachytherapy seeds should undergo one Monte Carlo (MC) and at least one experimental dosimetry characterization. Measurements were performed using TLD-GR200A circular chip dosimeters using standard methods employing thermo...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Dose Calculation of 90 Sr/ 90 Y Source in Water Phantom
Introduction: 90 Sr/ 90 Y source has been used for the intravascular brachytherapy to prevent coronary restenosis in the patients who have undergone angioplasty. The aim of this research is to determine the dose distribution of 90 Sr/ 90 Y source in a water phantom. Materials and Methods: In the present work, MCNP code has been applied to calculate the dose distri...

متن کاملComparison of dosimetry parameters of two commercially available Iodine brachytherapy seeds using Monte Carlo calculations
Background: Iodine brachytherapy sources with low photon energies have been widely used in treating cancerous tumors. Dosimetric parameters of brachytherapy sources should be determined according to AAPM TG-43U1 recommendations before clinical use. Monte Carlo codes are reliable tools in calculation of these parameters for brachytherapy sources. Materials and Methods: Dosimetric param...
