A seed specific dose kernel method for low-energy brachytherapy dosimetry. [PDF]
We describe a method for independently verifying the dose distributions from pre- and post-implant brachytherapy source distributions. Monte Carlo calculations have been performed to characterize the three-dimensional dose distribution in water phantom ...
