Análise da distribuição espacial de dose absorvida em próton terapia ocular

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Propõe-se avaliar os perfis de dose em profundidade e as distribuições espaciais de dose para protocolos de radioterapia ocular por prótons, a partir de simulações computacionais em código nuclear e modelo de olho discretizado em voxels. MATERIAIS E MÉTODOS: As ferramentas computacionais empregadas foram o código Geant4 (GEometry ANd Tracking) Toolkit e o SISCODES (Sistema Computacional para Dosimetria em Radioterapia). O Geant4 é um pacote de software livre, utilizado para simular a passagem de part… Show more

“…Considering the detailing of the proton therapy study based on such computational environment, dosimetric evaluations dedicated to proton therapy were published (9) . In the present study, for the purpose of comparisons between different therapeutic modalities, the simulations utilizing carbon ion and proton beams were performed with the same tools, model and computational environment.…”
