Monte Carlo dose index estimation in computed tomography
We numerically study the computed tomography dose index (CTDI) quantity based on the Monte Carlo method using GATE software. In this work, it was demonstrated that the CTDI values decreased following an exponential form as a function of phantom diameter. As expected, the absorbed dose is shown to ha...
