Abstract:To update and extend the Carleton Laboratory for Radiotherapy Physics (CLRP) Eye Plaque (EP) dosimetry database for low-energy photon-emitting brachytherapy sources using egs brachy, an open-source EGSnrc application. The previous database, CLRP EPv1, contained datasets for the Collaborative Ocular Melanoma Study (COMS) plaques (10-22 mm diameter) with 103 Pd or 125 I seeds (BrachyDose-computed, 2008). The new database, CLRP EPv2, consists of newlycalculated 3D dose distributions for 17 plaques [8 COMS, 5 Ecke… Show more
