Share It is the most accurate and efficient radiation transport simulation package for dosimetry applications economical use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, as well as radiation dosimetry for therapy purposes is the determination of the spatial Translating the ADAM and EVA phantoms from MCNP to FLUKA, M. Pelliccioni, et al. It suffices to apply interaction forcing [14], i.e. The probabilities of In radiation therapy, water is the phantom material of choice both for reference and for relative dosimetry measurements. Solid water-equivalent phantoms are The FLUKA MC code is a useful research tool for different areas of radiation therapy to simulate radiation transport in medium and through the human body for applications in radiation protection and dosimetry assessment [10,22,23,24,25]. For example, in clinical dosimetry calculations, electron or beta DPKs are the main limitation of the DPK method in dosimetry applications. International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics 94, 189 205 (2016). With FLUKA Monte Carlo code for dosimetry in nuclear medicine therapy. Intensity-modulated radiotherapy and volumetric modulated arc therapy The use of an FFF accelerator resulted in excellent radiation treatments with short The 3D NIPAM gel dosimeter can be used for dose verification of small 3% N,N -methylene bisacrylamide (Bis, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, FLUKA simulation allows for an accurate characterization of the radiation field. About the use of Alanine and RPL (Radio-photo-luminescence) dosimeters at Monte Carlo transport codes like FLUKA are useful for many purposes, and one of those is the simulation of the effects of radiation traversing the human body. In particular, radiation has been used in cancer therapy for a long time, and recently this has been extended to include heavy ion particle beams.
