Abstract
The need for an accurate dose calculation in tissues has long been an issue due to the complexity of the human anatomy. In this work, we aim to provide an accurate dose calculation for brain tumor and adjacent critical organs using Cf-252 neutron source based on human anatomy model and simulated by Monte Carlo code MCNPX. The Anatomy-based Monte Carlo dose for a brain tumor was compared to standard photon IMRT planning by a widely used TPS (Pinnacle3, 8.0d).
