[Simulation of an instrumental head for 6 MeV electron beam therapy].
Simulation of a therapy head for 6 MeV electron beams. We present the results of a simulation, performed using a Monte Carlo method, of depth dose curves in water for electron beams of initial kinetic energy of 6.4 MeV, generated by a radiotherapy microtron MM22 Scanditronix. The Fortran code in EGS4: comparison is made between simulated curves, obtained using various approximation criteria, and the experimental one.
