In the present work, Monte Carlo (MC) models of electron beams (energies 4, 12 and
18MeV) from an Elekta SL25 medical linear accelerator were simulated using …

With the advent of MRI-guided radiotherapy, reference dosimetry must be thoroughly
addressed to account for the effects of the magnetic field on absorbed dose to water and on …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dose differences introduced by the TMR 10
and the convolution dose calculation algorithms in GammaPlan version 10, as compared to …

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 …

Purpose: To accurately and efficiently implement charged particle transport in a magnetic
field in EGSnrc and validate the code for the use in phantom and ion chamber simulations …

Abstract A new EGS4/PRESTA Monte Carlo user code, MCDOSE, has been developed as a
routine dose calculation tool for radiotherapy treatment planning. It is suitable for both …

Purpose Aim of this study is to experimental evaluate the impact of a 0.35 T transverse
magnetic field on dose distribution in presence of tissue-air and tissue-lung interfaces …

Integrated magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and radiotherapy (RT) delivery machines are
currently being developed, with some already in clinical use. It is anticipated that the strong …
