Introduction: F18 and Ga68 radioisotopes are used in PET imaging for prostate cancer. It was aimed to calculate the prostate, testicle and bladder effective doses (ED) caused by F18 and Ga68 used in prostate cancer imaging with PET/CT via simulation with the GATE toolkit and evaluate the ED in terms of fertility.
Methods: The prostate, testicle and bladder were defined together with their geometric properties and densities in GATE simulation.

Background: It is estimated that more than 1 million people are diagnosed with liver malignancy each year and one of the treatments is radioembolization with Y-90 and Ho-166.
Objective: The aim of this study is to calculate the absorbed doses caused by Y-90 and Ho-166 in tumor and liver parenchyma using a phantom via Monte Carlo method.
Methods: A liver model phantom including a tumor imitation of sphere (r =1.
