title: [Monte Carlo calculations and TLD measurements to determine the two-dimensional dosage distribution of 125-iodine seed, Model 6702].
abstract: The angular and radial dose distribution around a type 6702 125-Iodine-seed was measured in water and air using thermoluminescence dosimetry. The radial distribution could be confirmed using Monte Carlo simulation techniques. The simulation produced enough data to allow the derivation of a new analytical function describing the radial dose distribution.
