Monte Carlo simulations are nowadays an essential tool in emission tomography (Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography— SPECT and Positron Emission Tomography—PET), for assisting system design and optimizing imaging and processing protocols. Several Monte Carlo simulation software are currently available for modeling SPECT and PET configurations. This paper presents an overview of current tr...

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+, amb...

an important need in radiation therapy is a fast and accurate treatment planning system. this system using ct data and characteristics of the radiation beam, calculates the dose in all points of the patient’s volume. two main factors in planning system are “accuracy” and “speed”. according to these factors, various generation of treatment planning systems are developed.   this article is the re...

A method for estimating the optical properties of two-layered media (such as squamous epithelial tissue) over a range of wavelengths in the ultraviolet-visible spectrum is proposed and tested with Monte Carlo modeling. The method first used a fiber-optic probe with angled illumination and the collection fibers placed at a small separation (<or=300 microm) to restrict the transport of detected l...
