Description

Today, Monte Carlo simulation is widely used for many applications in various fields such as physics, medical. Monte Carlo GEANT4/GATE software has been developed for the simulation in imaging diagnostic, nuclear medicine, radiotherapy, and radiation biology. In this report, we will present details about simulation results of the head of TrueBeam STx have been performed using Monte Carlo GEANT4/GATE. Physical characteristics of 6 MV photon beam including percentage depth dose (PDD), central axis depth dose from simulation will be extracted and compared with measurement values in a water phantom by using a TrueBeam STx medical linear accelerator at the 108 Military Central Hospital.
