Cylindrical 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 کاملEstimation of dosimetric parameters of I-125 brachytherapy source model 6711 using GATE8.1 code
Brachytherapy is one type of internal radiation therapy where radiation sources, which are usually encapsulated are placed as close as possible to the tumor site inside the patient's body. In this technique, it is important to determine dose distribution around the brachytherapy capsule. Hereby, in this paper, dosimetric parameters of I-125 brachytherapy source model 6711 are estimated accordin...
متن کاملInvestigation of dose distribution 252Cf Isotron brachytherapy source based on TG-43U1 protocol by Monte Carlo method.
Introduction: The commercial 252Cf sources are too large in size and clinical applications of neutron brachytherapy (NBT) are limited to a small number of intracavitary treatments of cervical cancers. Recently, under the Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with Isotron Inc., the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) encapsulated a new medical 252Cf sources, c...

Introduction: Brachytherapy is one type of internal radiation therapy where radiation sources, which are usually encapsulated, are placed as close as possible to the tumor site or inside the patient's body. In this technique, it is important to determine dose distribution around the brachytherapy capsule to create optimal treatment plant. In this way, dosimetric parameters are...
