Abstract:To calculate the risk of secondary cancer induction resulting from this dose through a Monte Carlo simulation code and voxel-based anthropomorphic phantom to determine the radiation dose in organs and/or tissues with dosimetric importance and the effect of using static MLC in the 3D-CRT technique. In this work, a radiotherapy treatment of breast cancer was simulated using the radiation transport code MCNPX 2.7.0 and the adult anthropomorphic simulator FSTA_H50_M50. The absorbed doses for a set of organs with d… Show more
