Dosimetric characterization of Ir source-Leipzig applicators sets for surface cancer treatment with Monte Carlo code MCNP4C.

Monte Carlo simulations were done to characterize a radioactive Nucletron Classic Ir source with 6 Leipzig applicators (3 for the horizontal loading position and 3 for the vertical loading position) used in clinical treatments to irradiate superficial cancerous or non-cancerous lesions. The dosimetr...
