REEVALUATION OF THE AAPM TG-43 BRACHYTHERAPY DOSIMETRY PARAMETERS FOR AN <sup>125</sup>I SEED, AND THE INFLUENCE OF EYE PLAQUE DESIGN ON DOSE DISTRIBUTIONS AND DOSE-VOLUME HISTOGRAMS
The TG-43 dosimetry parameters of the AdvantageTM 125I model IAI-125A brachytherapy seed were studied. An investigation using modern MCNP radiation transport code with updated cross-section libraries was performed. Twelve different simulation conditions were studied for a single seed by varying the...
