Investigation of the dose enhancement effect due to gold nanoparticles at 18 MV radiotherapy using MAGIC-f and Monte Carlo methods Thoraco-Lumbar spinal cord fMRI in 3T Magnetic field
Introduction: Normoxic MAGIC-f polymer gels are established dosimeters used for three dimensional dos uantifications in radiotherapy. The high atomic number nanoparticles such as gold are nov adiosensitizers used to enhance doses delivered to tumors. The aim of this study was t vestigate the effect of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) in enhancing percentage depth doses (PDD ithin the...
متن کاملStudy of Radiation Dose Enhancement to Capillary Endothelial Cells Due to the Presence of Heavy Metal Nanoparticles in Two Cell and Tumor Scales by Monte Carlo Method
Introduction: Recently, the use of various sensitizers has been used to increase photon-induced doses in brachytherapy. One of these cases is the addition of heavy metal nanoparticles such as gold in the target area, which increases the production of ionizing electrons by increasing the possibility of photoelectric effects, and increases the efficacy of the treatment. In this study, the target ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Nano-Sized Gold Particles on the Target Dose Enhancement Based on Photon Beams Using by Monte Carlo Method
Objective(s): In this study we evaluate the impact of the different aspects of Gold Nano-Particles (GNPs) on the target absorptive Dose Enhancement Factor (DEF) during external targeted radiotherapy with photon beams ranging from kilovolt to megavolt energies using Monte Carlo simulation. Methods: We have simulated the interaction of photon beams wi...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Shielding Analysis Capabilities with Mavric
Monte Carlo shielding analysis capabilities in SCALE 6 are centered on the Consistent Adjoint Driven Importance Sampling (CADIS) methodology. CADIS is used to create an importance map for space/energy weight windows as well as a biased source distribution. New to SCALE 6 are the Monaco functional module, a multigroup fixed-source Monte Carlo transport code, and the Monaco with Automated Varianc...
متن کاملMegavoltage dose enhancement of gold nanoparticles for different geometric set-ups: Measurements and Monte Carlo simulation
Background: Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have been shown as a good radiosensitizer. In combination with radiotherapy, several studies with orthovoltage X-rays have shown considerable dose enhancement effects. This paper reports the dose enhancement factor (DEF) due to GNPs in 18 megavoltage (MV) beams. Materials and Methods: Different geometrical 50-nm GNPs configurations at a concentrati...
