Abstract
In this thesis the calculated dose by corePLAN treatment planning software is compared with the calculated dose from combining BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc Monte Carlo codes. First Varian Clinic 2100c/d linear accelerator was simulated and modeling parameters such as electron beam energy and its spatial distribution FWHM were tuned in order for PDD and dose profile curves to have an agreement with less than 2% error with the ion chamber dosimetry. In the second section the derived X-ray beams from the accelerator head simulations were used to calculate dose in different organs of a RANDO phantom. The female RANDO phantom was simulated based on its CT data using DOSXYZnrc code. The CT files of the...
