[ES] El objetivo del presente Trabajo Final de Máster (TFM) es realizar un estudio dosimétrico de un tratamiento de braquiterapia hepática que emplea microesferas de Y-90 mediante simulación empleando el método de Monte ...
[EN] Radiation Therapy Planning Systems (RTPS) presently operating in hospitals comprise algorithms founded on deterministic simplifications that do not correctly take into account electron lateral transport in the regions ...
The Monte Carlo (MC) method can be applied to simulate brachytherapy treatment planning. The MCNP5 code gives, together with results, a statistical uncertainty associated with them. However, the latter is not the only ...
