associated computer program for simulating the transport of electrons and photons in …

The Monte Carlo (MC) method has been shown through many research studies to calculate
accurate dose distributions for clinical radiotherapy, particularly in heterogeneous patient …

Abstract The macro Monte Carlo (MMC) method has been developed to improve the speed
of traditional Monte Carlo (MC) high-energy electron transport calculations without loss in …

Monte Carlo simulation is the most accurate method for absorbed dose calculations in
radiotherapy. Its efficiency still requires improvement for routine clinical applications …

During the last few decades, accuracy in photon and electron radiotherapy has increased
substantially. This is partly due to enhanced linear accelerator technology, providing more …

A new model for calculating electron beam dose has been developed. The algorithm is
based on a two‐or three‐dimensional geometry defined by computerized tomography (CT) …

VMC++ is a package for the class II condensed history Monte Carlo simulation of coupled
electron-photon transport optimized for three dimensional dose calculations used in the …

An accurate dose calculation in phantom and patient geometries requires an accurate
description of the radiation source. Errors in the radiation source description are propagated …

Monte Carlo studies of dose distributions in patients treated with radiotherapy electron
beams would benefit from generalized models of clinical beams if such models introduce …

Dose calculation plays an important role in the accuracy of radiotherapy treatment planning
and beam delivery. The Monte Carlo (MC) method is capable of achieving the highest …
