“…Considered for all fields, M. Fiak et al argued that more than 96% of the calculated data points passed the Gamma Index test criterion. Additionally, the difference between the measured and calculated TPR20/10 was obtained to be <1% (38).…”

“…This method can produce highly accurate and reliable results but requires a long simulation time. Some MC codes used in radiotherapy such as EGSnrc/BEAMnrc-DOSXYZnrc [1,2], MCNP [3], Geant4 [4,5], Fluka [6], and PENELOPE [7,8] have been conducted to characterize linac output spectra and dose distributions inhomogeneity and inhomogeneity phantom. The simulation outputs acquired by several investigators using the same code differ from each other due to the distinction in the system platforms and cross-section data provided by MC packages.…”

“…La simulació del pas de feixos de partícules a través del capçal dels acceleradors, ha sigut objecte d'estudi els darrers anys, per tal de garantir la qualitat i seguretat en les simulacions de MC emprades per a planificació de tractaments de radioteràpia. Nombroses publicacions han demostrat la precisió d'aquesta tècnica a l'hora de calcular distribucions de dosi [115,116,117,118,119,120,121].…”
