Technical note: Monte-Carlo dosimetry of the HDR 12i and Plus 192Ir sources.
In this study a complete set of dosimetric data for the GammaMed high dose rate (HDR) 12i and Plus 192Ir sources are presented. These data have been calculated by means of the Monte Carlo simulation code GEANT3. Absolute dose rate distributions in water are presented as conventional two dimensional (2D) Cartesian look-up tables, and in the TG43 formalism.
