Validation of GATE 6.1/GEANT4 9.4 for radiation therapy dosimetry. Impact of simulation parameters on dose calculation.
Résumé
The new release of GATE 6.1 (www.opengatecollaboration.org), making use of GEANT4 9.4 libraries, offers extended tools for dosimetric applications in radiation therapy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of GATE 6.1 simulation parameters to deliver accuratetreatment plannings using electron beams in heterogeneous tissues.
