Purpose To evaluate damage reduction in cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) caused by photoneutrons in high-energy X-ray radiotherapy using a neutron-shielding sheet …
Purpose Radiation therapy (RT) in patients with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED) carries a risk of device malfunction from radiation exposure. We sought to evaluate …
Radiotherapy treatments involving LINACs operating at accelerating potentials> 10 MV generate (photo) neutrons which deliver dose to patients also outside the target volume …
The accuracy of an out-of-field dose from an Elekta Synergy accelerator calculated using the X-ray Voxel Monte Carlo (XVMC) dose algorithm in the Monaco treatment planning system …
The purpose of this study was to design a simple neutron applicator to reduce neutron damage in CIEDs from high energy photon beams. MCNP was used to simulate gantry …
During the last decades, cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy has become first line therapy for those who are at risk for life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and …
