An MC model was successfully developed for the Papillon+ eBT device with a 25 mm diameter rectal applicator. The validated model, with its demonstrated accuracy in depth dose and transverse dose profile simulations, is a valuable tool for quality assurance and patient safety and, in a later phase, may be used for treatment planning, dose calculations and tissue inhomogeneity corrections.
