Monte Carlo based dose-rate assessment in 18F-Choline PET examination: a comparison between GATE and GAMOS codes

Monte Carlo simulation of radiation transport is the most accurate and patient-specific technique available for internal dosimetry in nuclear medicine. Taking morphological and functional information from CT and PET 3D scans, it is possible to perform MC dose calculations at voxel level. GATE and GA...
