Realistic Monte Carlo simulation of the INOR Therapy Unit and electron contamination calculation for a board 60Co Beam

The therapy beam from the 60Co unit used at INOR was modeled using the EGS Monte Carlo radiation transport system. The rectangular geometry of the collimating system is fully simulated and the effect of considering the outer collimator a set of stepped collimators rather than a collimator with a sm...
