摘要: Axial and radial doses of Neutrons gamma rays from an Isotron 252Cf Brachytherapy source were calculated in a Water phantom using Maienshein’s prompt fission data Maxwellian neutron energy spectrum. It was observed that dose due to the casing thickness does not contribute significantly total dose. Further secondary ray rate is very small compared primary rate. Neutron this study agree with published data. Results will be presented here.
