Calculation of Photoneutron Contamination of Varian Linac in ICRU Soft-Tissue Phantom Using MCNPX Code

PURPOSE: The aim of this research was to calculate the fluence, dose equivalent (DE), and kerma of thermal, epithermal and fast photoneutrons separately, within ICRU soft-tissue-equivalent phantom in the radiotherapy treatment room, using MCNPX Monte Carlo code. MATERIALS AND METHODS: For this purpo...
