MATLAB Monte Carlo User’s Manual Medical Physics 501 December 15, 2008 Purpose/Introduction The goal of this project was to create a functional Monte Carlo program using the Matrix Laboratory, MATLAB. Using our understanding of the underlying physics from the Medical Physics 501 course, an Introduction to Radiological Physics and Dosimetry, we set forth to complete this task within the semester as a whole class, each of us taking a portion, leaving our individual fingerprints. The project was broken into three subgroups, two to handle the photon interaction physics, one for beta particle interactions. What resulted appears to be a functional program which returns the dose distribution of a volume as defined by an input DICOM file. We hope that future students can use our program as a base to create an even more powerful Monte Carlo tool, taking into account more advanced physics and concepts that one semester of work would not allow. That being said, we present to you the guide for MATLAB Monte Carlo, version 1.0.

In all of these interactions, a portion of the photon’s energy is transferred to electrons, which can then deposit their energy in matter. The type of interaction depends on the initial energy of the photon and the atomic number of the interacting medium. To determine the type of interaction for our simulation we used the contribution of each interaction type to the total interaction cross section. These cross-sections are defined per unit mass of material giving an expression for the total mass attenuation coefficient for a specific material at specific photon energy. It can
