Published in 2017 at "Physica Medica"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmp.2017.09.030

Abstract: Reliable nuclear fragmentation models are of utmost importance in hadrontherapy, where Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are used to compute the input parameters of the treatment planning software, to validate the deposited dose calculation, to evaluate… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Physics in medicine and biology"

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6560/aabd20

Abstract: In this study, the multi-threading performance of the Geant4, MCNP6, and PHITS codes was evaluated as a function of the number of threads (N) and the complexity of the tetrahedral-mesh phantom. For this, three tetrahedral-mesh… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Journal of Radiation Research"

DOI: 10.1093/jrr/rrac105

Abstract: Abstract Auger-emitting radionuclides have potential application in targeted radiotherapy, particularly for metastatic cancers. This possibility, especially, is stemmed from their characteristic short-range (a few μm) in biological systems allowing localization of high dose within small… read more here.
