Monte carlo study on dose distributions around 192Ir, 169Yb, and 125I brachytherapy sources using EGSnrc-based egs_brachy user-code

Monte carlo study on dose distributions around 192Ir, 169Yb, and 125I brachytherapy sources using EGSnrc-based egs_brachy user-code

Introduction/: As per the recommendations of the American Association of Physicists in Medicine Task Group 43, Monte Carlo (MC) investigators should reproduce previously published dose distributions whenever new features of the code are explored. The purpose of the present study is to benchmark the...
