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 کاملA review of the use and potential of the GATE Monte Carlo simulation code for radiation therapy and dosimetry applications.
In this paper, the authors' review the applicability of the open-source GATE Monte Carlo simulation platform based on the GEANT4 toolkit for radiation therapy and dosimetry applications. The many applications of GATE for state-of-the-art radiotherapy simulations are described including external beam radiotherapy, brachytherapy, intraoperative radiotherapy, hadrontherapy, molecular radiotherapy,...

abstract nowadays, the science of decision making has been paid to more attention due to the complexity of the problems of suppliers selection. as known, one of the efficient tools in economic and human resources development is the extension of communication networks in developing countries. so, the proper selection of suppliers of tc equipments is of concern very much. in this study, a ...
15 صفحه اولExtension of the GATE Monte-Carlo simulation package to model bioluminescence and fluorescence imaging.
The Geant4 Application for Emission Tomography (GATE) is an advanced open-source software dedicated to Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations in medical imaging involving photon transportation (Positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed tomography, computed tomography) and in particle therapy. In this work, we extend the GATE to support simulations of optical imaging, such as biolumine...
متن کاملMonte-Carlo simulation for scatter correction compensation studies in SPECT imaging using GATE software package
Simulations using Monte-Carlo packages are increasingly used in Nuclear Imaging, both for PET and SPECT applications. Either for modeling imaging systems or developing algorithms for analysis and improvement of image quantification. The aim of this work is the study of several scatter phenomena and the evaluation and improvement of two scatter correction compensation methods in pixelized scinti...
