Gantry orientation effect on the neutron and capture gamma ray dose equivalent at the maze entrance door in radiation therapy

In the present study, the effect of gantry orientation on the photoneutron and capture gamma dose calculations for maze entrance door was evaluated. A typical radiation therapy room made of ordinary concrete was simulated using MCNPX Monte Carlo code. Gantry rotation was simulated at eight differ...
