Radioiodine (131-I) treatment for Graves’ disease: Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation for patient personalized dose estimation
Background: Reliable estimation of radiation-absorbed dose is necessary to evaluate the benefits and the risks of radiopharmaceuticals used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes in nuclear medicine. Materiel and Methods: This study included 47 patients treated with iodine-131 for Graves’ disease. A comparative study between Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation and MIRD formalism was carried out to ev...
متن کاملImplementation of INCL cascade and ABLA evaporation codes in Geant4
We introduce a new implementation of the Liège cascade INCL4.2 and of the evaporation/fission code ABLA v3 in Geant4. INCL treats the cascade of hadron, deuterium, tritium, and helium projectiles of energies up to 3 GeV, while ABLA, based on evaporation and fission, provides a treatment of the excited nucleus produced at the end of the cascade. Details of the implementation of INCL and ABLA in ...

متن کاملDevelopment of a Geant4 Solid for Stereo Mini-jet Cells in a Cylindrical Drift Chamber
Stereo mini-jet cells will be indispensable components of a future ee linear collider central tracker such as JLC-CDC. There is, however, no official Geant4 solid available at present to describe such geometrical objects, which had been a major obstacle for us to develop a full Geant4-based simulator with stereo cells built in. We have thus extended Geant4 to include a new solid (TwistedTubs), ...
متن کاملMultithreaded Geant4: Semi-automatic Transformation into Scalable Thread-Parallel Software
This work presents an application case study. Geant4 is a 750,000 line toolkit first designed in the mid-1990s and originally intended only for sequential computation. Intel’s promise of an 80-core CPU meant that Geant4 users would have to struggle in the future with 80 processes on one CPU chip, each one having a gigabyte memory footprint. Thread parallelism would be desirable. A semiautomatic...
