Research Abstract |
We performed research and development for fundamentaltechnology of treatment planning in particle therapy which can estimate equivalent dose using numerical simulation by combination with micro-dosimetry in cell level and treatment planning technology (Macro-dosimetry). A patent for the new technology has been applied based on the achievement. We have verified the technology in the work, and the verification results demonstrated that equivalent dose can be calculated in the treatment planning work with PHITS as a Monte-Carlo code by innovating the technology into PHITS.
