我们使用蒙特卡罗技术来评估正电子发射断层扫描对质子放射治疗体内剂量测定的适用性。Monte Carlo模拟结果与实验数据吻合较好。模拟结果表明，PET可以是有用的，特别是在体内布拉格的峰值定位。
We have used the Monte Carlo technique to evaluate the applicability of Positron Emission Tomography to in vivo dosimetry for proton radiotherapy. A fair agreement has been found between Monte Carlo results and experimental data. The simulation shows that PET can be useful especially for in vivo Bragg's peak localization.
