Conversion coefficients for determination of dispersed photon dose during radiotherapy: NRUrad input code for MCNP

Radiotherapy is a common cancer treatment module, where a certain amount of dose will be delivered to the targeted organ. This is achieved usually by photons generated by linear accelerator units. However, radiation scattering within the patient's body and the surrounding environment will lead...
