Monte Carlo modelling of the treatment line of the Proton Therapy Center in Orsay.

This paper presents the main results of a Monte Carlo simulation describing the Orsay Proton Therapy Center (CPO) beam line. The project aimed to obtain a prediction of the dose distribution in a water phantom within 2% accuracy in the dose value and a 2 mm of range. The simulation tool used was MCNPX, version 2.
