Microdosimetry is a tool for the investigation of microscopic energy deposition of ionizing radiation. This work used Caenorhabditis elegans as a model to estimate the microdosimetric deposition level at the 60 Co gamma radiation. Monte Carlo software PHITS was employed to establish irradiated nemat...
