Dose calculation for particle therapy has been performed on GRID environments using a Geant4 based particle therapy simulation framework (PTSIM). PTSIM provides a common platform to model a beam line and treatment head with patient data from CT. PTSIM has already provided three of Japanese proton and ion therapy facilities and three more in other countries. At particle therapy facilities, dose analyses...
Monte Carlo method has been widely approved to the way of precise dose calculation. The GEANT4 Monte Carlo has been also demonstrated its wide applicability in medical physics. In our previous work, we had developed a GEANT4 based simulation framework for particle therapy system, PTSSim, for composing an irradiation system in various radiation therapy facilities. The performance study had been also...
