Dosimetric investigation of 103Pd permanent breast seed implant brachytherapy based on Monte Carlo calculations
Stephen G. Deering, Michelle Hilts, Deidre Batchelar +2
PURPOSE: Permanent breast seed implant (PBSI) using 103Pd is emerging as an effective adjuvant radiation technique for early-stage breast cancer. However, clinical dose evaluations…
Heterogeneous multiscale Monte Carlo simulations for gold nanoparticle radiosensitization
Martin P. Martinov, Rowan M. Thomson
To introduce the heterogeneous multiscale (HetMS) model for Monte Carlo simulations of gold nanoparticle dose-enhanced radiation therapy (GNPT), a model characterized by its varyin…
Update of the CLRP TG-43 parameter database for low-energy brachytherapy sources
Habib Safigholi, Marc J. P. Chamberland, Randle E. P. Taylor +4
PURPOSE: To update the Carleton Laboratory for Radiotherapy Physics (CLRP) TG-43 dosimetry database for low-energy (< 50 keV) photon-emitting low-dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy sour…
Taking EGSnrc to new lows: Development of egs++ lattice geometry and testing with microscopic
Martin P. Martinov, Rowan M. Thomson
Purpose: This work introduces a new lattice geometry library, egs_lattice, into the EGSnrc Monte Carlo code, which can be used for both modeling very large (previously unfeasible)…
