Rabbit internal dosimetry for iodine-131 using GATE Monte Carlo simulation code: a preclinical trial
Introduction: One of the main concerns in administration of radiotracers, especially in therapeutic arm, is the amount of delivered dose to the different organs. Individual variations of anatomy, physiology and underlying pathology in the patients lead to alteration of administered activity. In the current study we preclinically applied internal dosimetry using an animal mod...

متن کاملUnfolding X-ray spectrum in the diagnostic range using the Monte Carlo Code MCNP5
Introduction: Unfolding X-ray spectrum is a powerful tool for quality control of X-ray tubes. Generally, the acquisition of the X-ray spectrum in diagnostic radiology departments is complicated and difficult due to high photon flux. Measurement of x ray spectra using radiation detectors could not be performed accurately, because of the pulse pile up. Therefore, indirect methods...
متن کاملMass Attenuation Coefficients of Human Body Organs using MCNPX Monte Carlo Code
Introduction: Investigation of radiation interaction with living organs has always been a thrust area in medical and radiation physics. The investigated results are being used in medical physics for developing improved and sensitive techniques and minimizing radiation exposure. In this study, mass attenuation coefficients of different human organs and biological materials such as adipose, blood...
متن کاملAccuracy Evaluation of Oncentraâ„¢ TPS in HDR Brachytherapy of Nasopharynx Cancer Using EGSnrc Monte Carlo Code
Background: HDR brachytherapy is one of the commonest methods of nasopharyngeal cancer treatment. In this method, depending on how advanced one tumor is, 2 to 6 Gy dose as intracavitary brachytherapy is prescribed. Due to high dose rate and tumor location, accuracy evaluation of treatment planning system (TPS) is particularly important. Common methods used in TPS dosimetry are based on computat...
