Monte Carlo dosimetry of a novel Yttrium‐90 disc source for episcleral brachytherapy

PURPOSE: To calculate the dose distribution using Monte Carlo simulations for a novel high‐dose‐rate Yttrium‐90 (Y‐90) disc source recently developed for episcleral brachytherapy and provide a lookup table for treatment planning. METHODS: Monte Carlo simulations were performed to calculate the in‐wa...
