Abstract

The relative dose calculated by MCNPX and the relative dose measured by ionization chamber and solid phantoms evaluated the accuracy comparing with Monte Carlo simulation. In order to apply Monte Carlo simulation the intraluminal brachytherapy of extrahepatic bile duct cancer, 192Ir sealed radioactive source replicate, Bile duct and surrounding organs were made using KMIRD phantom based on a South Korea standard man. To check the absorbed dose of normal organs around bile duct, we set the specific effective energy and initial radioactivity to 1 Ci using MCNPX. Evaluation of the accuracy of the Monte Carlo simulation, the difference of the relative dose is the most 1.96% that satisfy the criteria that is the relative error less than 2% suggested by MCNPX code. In addition, The specific effective energy and absorbed dose of normal organs that were relatively adjacent to bile duct such as right side of kidney, liver, pancreas, transverse colon, spinal cord, stomach and small intestine were relatively high. on the contrary, the organs that were relatively distant to bile duct such as left side of kidney, spleen, ascending colon, descending colon and sigmoid colon were relatively low.

MCNPX를 통하여 계산한 상대선량과 고체팬텀과 전리함을 이용하여 측정한 상대선량을 비교하여 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션의 정확성을 평가하였다. 그리고 간외 담도암 관내근접방사선치료를 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션에 적용하기 위해 192Ir 밀봉방사성선원을 모사하였고, 한국 성인남성 표준인을 기초로 하는 KMIRD형 팬텀을 이용하여 담도 및 주변 장기를 제작하였다. 간외 담도암 관내근접방사선치료를 MCNPX를 이용하여 담도 주변 정상장기의 비유효에너지와 초기방사능을 1 Ci로 설정하여 흡수선량을 산정하였다. 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션의 정확성 평가에서 상대선량 차이가 가장 많은 지점이 1.96%로 MCNPX에서 제시한 상대오차 2%를 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 담도 주변 정상장기의 비유효에너지 및 흡수선량은 담도와비교적 인접한 위치에 있는 우측신장, 간, 췌장, 횡행결장, 척수, 위장, 소장이 높았고, 담도와의 거리가 떨어져 있는 장기들인 좌측신장, 비장, 상행결장, 하행결장, S상결장이 낮게 나타났다.
