Theoretical approach based on Monte-Carlo simulations to predict the cell survival following BNCT
Abstract
We present here a very preliminary work on BNCT Dosimetry. The approach is as follows:
A full Monte Carlo calculation is used to separate all dose components and determine the corresponding physical dose fractions with a realistic clinical model.
These dose fractions are then used as mixed fields to predict cell-survivals and RBE values for a specific cell-line, thanks to the radiobiological model NanOxTM.
