Voxel Phantoms

Health Physics, 2012
Two new voxel phantoms, ICRP Adult Female (AF) and ICRP Adult Male (AM), have been compared with BOMAB (BOttle Mannikin ABsorber) phantoms and other voxel phantoms of similar size (NORMAN and VIP-Man) using Monte Carlo simulations to assess their counting efficiencies in a whole body counter.

IS2aR, a computational tool to transform voxelized reference phantoms into patient-specific whole-body virtual CTs for peripheral dose estimation

Physica Medica, 2023
The risk of radiogenic cancer induction due to radiotherapy depends on the dose received by the patient's organs. Knowing the position of all organs is needed to assess this dose in a personalized way. However, radiotherapy planning computed tomography (pCT) scans contain truncated patient anatomy, limiting personalized dose evaluation.To develop a ...

Comparison of neutron and secondary gamma dose assessment using polygon mesh and voxel computational phantoms

Journal of Radiological Protection, 2020
The newly developed mesh-type reference computational phantoms (MRCPs) represent the evolution of the previous reference phantoms and a more detailed description of the human body, addressing the voxel reference phantom limitations. These allow for a more accurate dose calculation in the human body, which in some cases results in a significant ...

Simulation of computed tomography dose based on voxel phantom

SPIE Proceedings, 2017
Computed Tomography (CT) is one of the preferred and the most valuable imaging tool used in diagnostic radiology, which provides a high-quality cross-sectional image of the body. It still causes higher doses of radiation to patients comparing to the other radiological procedures.

Multi-resolution voxel phantom modeling: a high-resolution eye model for computational dosimetry

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2014
Voxel models of the human body are commonly used for simulating radiation dose with a Monte Carlo radiation transport code. Due to memory limitations, the voxel resolution of these computational phantoms is typically too large to accurately represent the dimensions of small features such as the eye.

Dosimetric impact of voxel resolutions of computational human phantoms for external photon exposure

Biomedical Physics & Engineering Express, 2019
Several research teams have developed computational phantoms in polygonal-mesh (PM) and/or Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline format, but it has not been systematically evaluated if the existing voxel phantoms are still dosimetrically valid. We created three voxel phantoms with the resolutions of 1,000, 125, and 1 mm3 and simulated the irradiation in antero-

An Eye Model for Computational Dosimetry Using A Multi-Scale Voxel Phantom

SNA + MC 2013 - Joint International Conference on Supercomputing in Nuclear Applications + Monte Carlo, 2014
The lens of the eye is a radiosensitive tissue with cataract formation being the major concern. Recently reduced recommended dose limits to the lens of the eye have made understanding the dose to this tissue of increased importance. Due to memory limitations, the voxel resolution of computational phantoms used for radiation dose calculations is too ...

A comparison of radiation dose measured in CT dosimetry phantoms with calculations using EGS4 and voxel-based computational models

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 1997
CT is a high-dose examination and possibly the dominant contributor to dose from diagnostic radiology. Estimates of organ doses are obtained from Monte Carlo calculations and used to quantify radiation risk. To ensure the validity of using Monte Carlo calculations to estimate actual dose, measurements must be compared with calculations.

SAR in a child voxel phantom from exposure to wireless computer networks (Wi-Fi)

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2010
Specific energy absorption rate (SAR) values have been calculated in a 10 year old sitting voxel model from exposure to electromagnetic fields at 2.4 and 5 GHz, frequencies commonly used by Wi-Fi devices. Both plane-wave exposure of the model and irradiation from antennas in the near field were investigated for a variety of exposure conditions.
