High performance modelling of the transport of energetic particles for photon radiotherapy.
Physica Medica : PM 2017 October
This work consists of the validation of a new Grid Based Boltzmann Solver (GBBS) conceived for the description of the transport and energy deposition by energetic particles for radiotherapy purposes. The entropic closure and a compact mathematical formulation allow our code (M1) to calculate the delivered dose with an accuracy comparable to the Monte-Carlo (MC) codes with a computational time that is reduced to the order of few minutes without any special processing power requirement. A validation protocol with heterogeneity inserts has been defined for different photon sources. The comparison with the MC calculated depth-dose curves and transverse profiles of the beam at different depths shows an excellent accuracy of the M1 model.
