What is Monte Carlo Simulations for Gamma Knife about?

This document discusses implementing Monte Carlo simulations for dose calculations in Gamma Knife radiosurgery treatment planning. Currently, the standard Gamma Knife treatment planning system (Leksell GammaPlan) uses an algorithm that does not account for scatter dose contributions or tissue inhomogeneities like the skull and air cavities. The study implemented Monte Carlo simulations to model the 201 Cobalt-60 radiation sources and calculate dose in both homogeneous and inhomogeneous patient geometries. R
