Monte Carlo Dose Calculation
‘Full’ Monte Carlo methods:
Explicit simulation of all physical
interactions of all particle
histories (photons, electrons,
positrons and cross-sections of
interactions)
starting from electrons hitting the
target
ending with all local elementary
dose depositions in the patient,
considering exact material
compositions
