Investigation of the anisotropic distribution of microdosimetric quantities in the vicinity of X-ray-irradiated gold nanoparticles

High-Z nanoparticles incorporated in tumors have great potential to enhance radiotherapy treatments by increasing the absorbed radiation dose in the vicinity of the nanoparticle. However, current Monte Carlo simulations estimate dose enhancement metrics in 1D, neglecting the anisotropy of the energy...
