【Abstract】 In this article we present a Monte Carlo simulation based method to calculate electron beam dose distribution in radiotherapy,for MC method is good at solving particles tranport issue.A MC code,LISTMC,has been developed based on EGS4 and PENELOPE to accomplish the task.In dealing with the inhomogeneous tissue and the complex geometry of human body,its results are more accurate than the methods used in practice.To reduce the lengthy computation time we used some techniques,such as reducing the limitation of boundary of voxel to the path of electron and code optimization etc.In many cases a good coincidence has been observed between EGS4 and LISTMC,but the computation time of LISTMC for 6 MeV electron beams is only 1/10 of EGS4 PRESTA.更多还原
