Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 1 Electron Dose point kernels calculations in water using GATE/G4.8 GATE/G4 collaboration meeting, Lydia Maigne (LPC, Clermont-Ferrand), Credits: Cheick Thiam (LPC, Clermont-Ferrand), Nicolas Chouin, Ludovic Ferrer (Inserm, Nantes), Michel Maire (G4

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 2 DPK calculations methodology drr Simulations characteristics: -Isotropic point source -Monoenergetic emission, 5M e- generated -Scoring of the dose in a spherical water phantom of 400 mm in diameter containing 22 spherical shells each of thickness of 0.05 rE -Cut of 2 kev on e- -Standard EM package Formalism to calculate the dose (Berger and TG43): fraction of emitted energy that is deposited in a spherical shell of scaled radius r/rE to r/rE + d(r/rE). With: r being the radial distance to the middle of the spherical shells, rE the nominal CSDA range the density of the medium, D(r,E) the dose per incident particle at distance r.

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 4 Comparisons: Cuts, detector volumes, EM packages 4 MeV Large volumeSpherical shells 4 MeV Problems but where do they come from?? By considering a large volume of water: Cut values have a non negligeable influence By considering spherical shells: Changes on cut values have no influence Results obtained with a cut value of 2 keV ( mm) in a large volume of water give comparable results to spherical shells.

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 5 Solutions Important modifications to simulate the dose deposited: –No more spherical shells –Use of a large sphere in water Z Y X dr r r Modifications in the code of GATE: To fix the maximal step length on electron transport, StepMax To obtain an homogeneous distribution of the dose deposited along the step

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 6 Control the step length « StepMax » GEANT4 class to manage the step « G4Step.cc » In GATE: Addition of the class « GateStepMax » to call « GateSteppingAction » and « G4Step » classes: Consequence in GATE macros, add the following command line: # StepMax Control !!! /gate/StepMax/stepMax 7 µm Consequence on the dose deposited by electrons: No influence, results stay the same So, what to do?.....

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 7 Control the energy deposited along the step Modification of the « GateSteppingAction.cc » class: GEANT4: By default, energy is deposited at the end of the step: "Post-step point" -Random distribution of energy deposited along the step -Continue energy loss along the trajectory - Enable to fit well the dose deposited inside a volume Energy deposited

Plateforme de Calcul pour les Sciences du Vivant Lydia Maigne GATE/G4 meeting collaboration - 12/09/07 - Hebden Bridge 16 Conclusions -Random deposition of the energy along the step is the the most important parameter to change in the simulation to obtain reliable results -Comparisons show: -Deviation less than 1% between GATE and Berger results for 50, 100 keV and 1 MeV -Deviation less than 0.5% with other Monte Carlo -GATE and G4 are now trusted and well validated for dose deposited by electrons especially for very high dose gradient on short distances.
