Purpose The goal of this work is to validate the user-friendly Geant4-based Monte Carlo
toolkit TOol for PArticle Simulation (TOPAS) for brachytherapy applications. Methods and …

We propose the split exponential track length estimator (seTLE), a new kerma-based
method combining the exponential variant of the TLE and a splitting strategy to speed up …

Purpose The purpose of this study is to create an organ dose database for pediatric
individuals undergoing chest, abdomen/pelvis, and head computed tomography (CT) …

Purpose To investigate differences between prescribed and postimplant calculated dose in
192 Ir high-dose-rate endorectal brachytherapy (HDR-EBT) by evaluating dose to clinical …

Objective. The scientific community has considered internal dosimetry by the Monte Carlo
method the gold standard. However, there is a trade-off between simulation processing time …

This work describes the implementation of a deterministic-like straight-line transport routine
inside the TRIPOLI-4^\circledR TRIPOLI-4® Monte Carlo code, aimed at developing a hybrid …

Optical multipass cells are used in photochemical reactors and laser excitation of weak
transitions. In these applications, estimation of the radiation dose in a volume of interest …

Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of X-ray image devices require splitting the simulation into two
parts (ie the generation of x-rays and the actual imaging). The X-ray production remains …

Abstract A Monte Carlo (MC) variance reduction technique is developed for prompt-γ
emitters calculations in proton therapy. Prompt-γ emitted through nuclear fragmentation …

Pelvic cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) occurs daily in many radiotherapy clinics
as a part of image-guided verification before treatment. These images are acquired by the …
