Investigation of the gold nanoparticles effects on the prostate dose distribution in brachytherapy: gel dosimetry and Monte Carlo method
Purpose: In this work, gold nanoparticles (GNPs) were embedded in the MAGIC-f polymer gel irradiated with the 192 Ir brachytherapy sources. Material and methods: At the first plexiglas phantom was made as the human pelvis. The GNPs were synthesized with 15 nm in diameter and 0.1 mM (0.0197 mg...
