Abstract
he suitability of introducing molecular interference effects into coherentscattering phenomenology is considered here in the case of X and gamma photontransport in biological tissues. In order to make its implementation practicable in most of the existing open user MonteCarlocodes, a self-consistent basic set of tabulations for the linear differential scattering coefficient was proposed. The tabulations were critically reviewed by testing their validity over the entire range of the momentum transfer variable from 0 to 1010 nm−1. Implementation in three different MonteCarlocodes was performed, and they proved to be reliable.File in questo prodotto:
