Abstract
An accurate and fast radiation dose calculations method is the main part of treatment planning for successful radiation therapy.This work aimed to create a novel GPU-based fast Monte Carlo Photon Dose Code (MCPDC) as a fast and accurate tool in dose calculation for radiotherapy treatment planning.In this analytical study, MCDPC was written to implement photon MC simulation for energies 0.01 to 20 MeV and run on an NVIDIA GTX970. The code was...
