A Monte Carlo simulation study of vinblastine and vincristine as clinical drugs

Authors

  • Majid Monajjemi -
Abstract:

In this study, Monte Carlo statistical mechanical simulations for vinblastine and vincristine werecarried out in standard manner using the Metropolis sampling technique in canonical (T, V, N)ensemble., Geometrical optimizations of vinblastine and vincristine were carried out with the HFmethod coupled to 6-31G(d) basis sets for all atoms. Simulation was done by four force fields ofMM+, BIO+, AMBER and OPLS. Some important energy parameters such as Potential Energy andTotal Energy in ten different simulating temperatures (300, 302, 304, 306, 308, 310, 312, 314, 316and 318 Kelvin) were used for computation.

Comparison of TOF-PET and Bremsstrahlung SPECT images of Yttrium-90: A Monte Carlo Simulation Study

Objective(s): Yttrium-90 (90Y) is a beta particle nuclide used in targeted radionuclide therapy which is available to both single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and time-of-flight (TOF) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The purpose of this study was to assess the image quality of PET and Bremsstrahlung SPECT by simulating PET and SPECT images of 90Y using Monte Carlo simu...

A New Approach for Monte Carlo Simulation of RAFT Polymerization

In this work, based on experimental observations and exact theoretical predictions, the kinetic scheme of RAFT polymerization is extended to a wider range of reactions such as irreversible intermediate radical terminations and reversible transfer reactions. The reactions which have been labeled as kinetic scheme are the more probable existing reactions as the theoretical point of view. The ...

Monte Carlo Simulation of Prostate Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy Using PRIMO Software: A Feasibility Study

Introduction: Nowadays Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) is a common method for treating prostate cancers. Must of the Monte Carlo software cannot simulate the IMRT procedures due to inability of these soft wares to simulate the multi leaf collimator (MLC) positions or movements. A new user-friendly software based on the PENELOPE Monte Carlo code named PRIMO was published...

Derivation and validation of a sensitivity formula for knife-edge slit gamma camera: A theoretical and Monte Carlo simulation study

Introduction: Gamma cameras are proposed for online range verification and treatment monitoring in proton therapy.  An Analytical formula was derived and validated for sensitivity of a slit collimator based on the photon fluence concept. Methods: Fluence formulation was generalized for photons distribution function and solved for high-energy point sources. The...
