摘要：

A Monte Carlo method has been used to calculate the dose distribution around point γ-ray emitters in water. Five γ-ray emitting radionuclides, 60Co, 137Cs, 192Ir, 198Au and 226Ra, which are commonly used in radiotherapy interstitial implants, have been considered. The results are in substantial agreement with those derived using a combination of experimental and theoretical data.
