“…5 has not yet been verified, therefore the aim of the present study was to evaluate dose calculation accuracy of AXB-Dm, AXB-Dw, and AAA with respect to Monte Carlo methods. In order to compare these codes a three dimensional conformal treatment plan was generated using the TPS and Monte Carlo (MC) techniques [1,22,25]. Also, the female pelvic rando phantom is composed of air, muscle tissue and bone tissue was used [24] due to its heterogeneities it is a good choice to check the accuracy of the accuracy of AXB-Dm, AXB-Dw and AAA with respect to MC.…”

“…It is divided into several modules to handle problems related to linear accelerators, voxelized cubical phantoms, brachytherapy etc. [43][44][45][46]. The electron-electron interaction are simulated using Moller cross sections and Bhabha cross sections are used to simulate electron-positron interactions [27].…”

“…O método matemático de Monte Carlo (MC) destaca-se na área da física das radiações como uma ferramenta para modelagem e simulação computacional (6)(7)(8). Vários códigos computacionais existem para a simulação do transporte de partículas e são utilizados como apoio às medidas experimentais (9,10).…”

“…O método matemático de Monte Carlo (MC) destaca-se na área da física das radiações como uma ferramenta para modelagem e simulação computacional (6)(7)(8). Vários códigos computacionais existem para a simulação do transporte de partículas e são utilizados como apoio às medidas experimentais (9,10). Diversos trabalhos publicados diariamente utilizam códigos de MC para diferentes cálculos nas áreas da dosimetria beta bem como em outras várias outras áreas de pesquisa (11)(12)(13).…”
