Report of the Task Group 186 on model-based dose calculation methods in brachytherapy beyond the TG-43 formalism: current status and recommendations for clinical implementation.
The charge of Task Group 186 (TG-186) is to provide guidance for early adopters of model-based dose calculation algorithms (MBDCAs) for brachytherapy (BT) dose calculations to ensure practice uniformity. Contrary to external beam radiotherapy, heterogeneity correction algorithms have only recently been made available to the BT community. Yet, BT dose calculation accuracy is highly dependent on ...
متن کاملDetermining TG-43 brachytherapy dosimetry parameters and dose distribution for a 131Cs source model CS-1
Background: Monte Carlo determination of TG-43 brachytherapy dosimetry parameters and dose distribution calculation for 131Cs source model CS-1 are presented in this study. Materials and Methods: The dose distribution was calculated around the 131Cs Model CS-1 located in the center of 30 cm ×30 cm ×30 cm water, and soft tissue phantoms cube using MCNP code by Monte Carlo method. The percentage ...

متن کاملCylindrical coordinate‐based TG‐43U1 parameters for dose calculation around elongated brachytherapy sources
In 2001, the use of cylindrical coordinates was demonstrated to be more suitable than was the use of polar coordinates for accurate computer calculations during treatment planning for 192Ir intravascular brachytherapy sources. In the present work, we investigated the applicability of cylindrical coordinate-based TG-43U1 parameters for dosimetric evaluation and dose calculations for RadioCoil 10...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
