Dose-rate constant and air-kerma strength evaluation of a new 125I brachytherapy source using Monte Carlo

Dose-rate constant and air-kerma strength evaluation of a new 125I brachytherapy source using Monte Carlo

Brachytherapy is a modality of radiotherapy which treats tumors using ionizing radiation with sources located close to the tumor. The sources can be produced from several radionuclides in various formats, such as Iodine‑125 seeds and Iridium‑192 wires. In order to produce a new Iodine‑125 seed in IP...
