localization of sources in patients with focal seizure has recently attracted many attentions. in the severe cases of focal seizure, there is a possibility of doing neurosurgery operation to remove the defected tissue. the prosperity of this heavy operation completely depends on the accuracy of source localization. to increase this accuracy, this paper presents a new weighted beamforming method...

Introduction Electron linear accelerator (LINAC) can be used for neutron production in Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT). BNCT is an external radiotherapeutic method for the treatment of some cancers. In this study, Varian 2300 C/D LINAC was simulated as an electron accelerator-based photoneutron source to provide a suitable neutron flux for BNCT. Materials and Methods Photoneutron sources w...

Objective: The use of miniature X-ray source in electronic brachytherapy is on the rise so there is an urgent need to acquire more knowledge on X-ray spectrum production and distribution by a dose. The aim of this research was to investigate the influence of target thickness and geometry at the source of miniature X-ray tube on tube output.Method: Five sources were simulated based on problems e...
