A Monte Carlo Study on the Effect of Various Neutron Capturers on Dose Distribution in Brachytherapy with (252)Cf Source
BACKGROUND: In neutron interaction with matter and reduction of neutron energy due to multiple scatterings to the thermal energy range, increasing the probability of thermal neutron capture by neutron captures makes dose enhancement in the tumors loaded with these materials. OBJECTIVE: The purpose o...
