Generation of 3D reference dosimetric datasets towards adoption of model-based dose calculations for permanent implant prostate brachytherapy. [PDF]
Med PhysAbstract Purpose This work aims to create and validate a comprehensive set of test cases and 3D reference dosimetric datasets for model‐based dose calculation algorithms (MBDCAs) in permanent implant prostate brachytherapy. These test cases address the limits of the standard TG‐43 formalism towards improving dose evaluations in prostate cancer ...

Correlation of size specific dose estimates with organ dose in abdominal spectral computed tomography [PDF]
J Appl Clin Med PhysAbstract Background In abdominal spectral Computed Tomography (CT), organ dose assessment is important for radiation safety but remains challenging due to the complexity of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Purpose This study aimed to compare the correlations of three size‐specific dose estimate (SSDE) metrics (including the central slice SSDEcenter, the ...
