Simulating Medical Imaging X-Ray Tubes with Various Parameters Using BEAMnrc Monte Carlo Software

Context: Medical imaging has a wide range of applications in today’s society. Basic projectional radiography, CT scans, mammograms and other advanced technologies all use x-rays to create large number examinations every day across the world. The most essential component such medical equipment is x-ray tube, which creates produces x-rays. Objective: We describe investigate an abstract model-geometry simple tube utilizing open-source software package BEAMnrc EGSnrcmp family, well validated by several studies over years, for high low energy photons generation. Methodology: Our research focuses on two different electron beam energies: 120 keV 30 keV. typical radiographic exams examinations, whereas mammography. Results: Two anode materials are used each case, Gold (Au) Tungsten (W) because these common radiography CT; Molybdenum (Mo) Rhodium (Rh) with targets mammography carried out. aim this work show how can simulate effectively generation low-energy utilized modern procedures. useful information anode-target characteristics, as angle, material, metal filter materials, based previous quality even using than BEAMnrc. Conclusion: demonstrate that be efficiently Monte Carlo modeling photons.
