Monte Carlo simulation of physical dose enhancement in core-shell magnetic gold nanoparticles with TOPAS
The application of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) as sensitization materials is a common strategy that is used to study dose enhancement in radiotherapy. Recent in vitro tests have revealed that magnetic gold nanoparticles (NPs) can be used in cancer therapy under a magnetic field to enhance the synergi...
