Different distributions of gold nanoparticles on the tumor and calculation of dose enhancement factor by Monte Carlo simulation

Gold nanoparticles can be used to increase the dose of the tumor due to its high atomic number as well as being free from apparent toxicity. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of distribution of gold nanoparticles models, as well as changes in nanoparticle sizes and spectrum of radiatio...
