Abstract

The present work has simulated the photon and electron transport in a Theratron 780&amp;#174; (MDS Nordion)<sup>60</sup>Co radiotherapy unit, using the Monte Carlo transport code, MCNP (Monte Carlo N-Particle). This project explains mainly the different methodologies carried out to speedup calculations in order to apply this code efficiently in radiotherapy treatment planning.
