Monte Carlo techniques have become ubiquitous in medical physics over the last 50 years
with a doubling of papers on the subject every 5 years between the first PMB paper in 1967 …

Background: Nutrition informatics has become a novel approach for registered dietitians to
practice in this field and make a profit for health care. Recommendation systems considered …

Abstract BEAMnrc is a Monte Carlo simulation system (Med. Phys. 22, 1995, 503–524) for
modelling radiotherapy sources which was developed as part of the OMEGA project to …

DOSXYZnrc is an EGSnrc-based Monte Carlo simulation code for calculating dose
distributions in a rectilinear voxel phantom and is based directly on the DOSXYZ code …

A history by history method for estimating uncertainties has been implemented in the
beamnrc and dosxyznrc codes replacing the method of statistical batches. This method …

Monte Carlo (MC) dose calculations are performed on patient geometries derived from
computed tomography (CT) images. For most available MC codes, the Hounsfield units (HU) …

Megavoltage x‐ray beams exhibit the well‐known phenomena of dose buildup within the
first few millimeters of the incident phantom surface, or the skin. Results of the surface dose …

The aim of this work was to determine magnetic field correction factors that are needed for
dosimetry in hybrid devices for MR-guided radiotherapy for Farmer-type ionization chambers …

The purpose of this study is to provide detailed characteristics of incident photon beams for
different field sizes and beam energies. This information is critical to the future development …

This study examines the efficiencies of doses calculated using DOSXYZnrc for (field size)
and (and field sizes) photon beams simulated using BEAMnrc. Both phase‐space sources …
