Experimental determination of radial dose function and anisotropy function of GammaMed Plus 192Ir high-dose-rate brachytherapy source in a bounded water phantom and its comparison with egs_brachy Monte Carlo simulation

Experimental determination of radial dose function and anisotropy function of GammaMed Plus 192Ir high-dose-rate brachytherapy source in a bounded water phantom and its comparison with egs_brachy Monte Carlo simulation

Objective: The aim of the present study is to experimentally measure the radial dose function g(r) and anisotropy function F(r,θ) of GammaMed Plus 192Ir high-dose-rate source in a bounded water phantom using thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) and film dosimetry and compare the obtained results with e...
