| BIDM.Asset.Abstract | The Physics and Space Technology Directorate of LLNL is developing a Monte Carlo all-particle transport code, PEREGRINE, for calculating the dose deposition in patients receiving radiation therapy. PEREGRINE simulates the transport of neutrons, photons, electrons, and protons through a patient using a geometry derived from a computed tomography (CT) scan that is made prior to treatment. PEREGRINE will help oncologists choose a treatment that maximizes the radiation dose to the tumor and minimizes the dose to normal tissues. | META |
