Monte Carlo simulation analysis of the design of a medical electron linear accelerator maze
Objective To analyze the impact of different maze structures of medical electron linear accelerator on the radiation level at the entrance of the treatment room.Methods The Monte Carlo simulation method was used to compare the radiation field distribution in two accelerator rooms with different maze widths and to conduct a detailed analysis of the radiation levels.Results The radiation level at the entrance of the accelerator room with a wide maze was signifi-cantly higher than that at the entrance of a compact maze.The neutron radiation level at the entrance of the narrow maze model decreased by 38.6%compared to the wide maze model,and the level of X-ray radiation also showed a declining trend.Conclusion When designing medical electron linear accelerators,a compact maze structure should be adopted to reduce the setting of unnecessary space,thereby lowering the radiation level at the entrance of the treatment room and enhancing the effectiveness of radiation protection.
