Simulation and Evaluation of Dosimetric Parameters of 125I Thermobrachytherapy Source with Ferromagnetic Core, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Hosseini, Abolfazl (Supervisor) ; Sheibani, Shahab (Supervisor) ; Poorbaygi, Hossein (Co-Supervisor) ; Mohagheghpour, Elham (Co-Supervisor)
Abstract
In the method treatment of thermobrachytherapy, the method of this project, simultaneously use of two processes of thermotherapy and brachytherapy is considered, which can be a more effective treatment for the destruction of tumor tissue. In thermotherapy, the temperature of the tissue is artificially raised to a temperature that leads to cell dysfunction resulting in cell death. In brachytherapy, the destruction of defective tissue is done by placing a source in the tissue. In the present project, we supposed to consider both mechanisms simultaneously for treatment at the same time. In this project, radioactive material 125I is used as a source of radiation emission for brachytherapy. In...
