Mr. ABDALLAH ALDAHOUK , the research conducted focuses on the validation and application of Monte Carlo simulation techniques using GATE (Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission) software for modeling computed tomography (CT) imaging systems. This work aims to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of CT imaging through advanced computational modeling, allowing precise evaluation of image quality parameters and radiation dose distribution. By employing the Catphan CTP404 phantom, the study investigates the reliability of simulated data in replicating clinical imaging conditions, ensuring that virtual simulations closely mirror real-world CT performance. The research contributes to the optimization of CT imaging protocols, reduction of patient radiation exposure, and improvement of diagnostic accuracy. It further explores the integration of simulation-based calibration and validation methods in biomedical imaging, providing a framework for developing next-generation imaging systems with enhanced resolution and safety. The findings demonstrate the potential of GATE-based Monte Carlo simulations as a powerful tool for medical physicists and biomedical engineers to design, assess, and refine imaging systems without the need for extensive experimental trials. This work represents a significant advancement in computational biomedical engineering, bridging theoretical modeling and clinical imaging applications for improved healthcare diagnostics and imaging innovation.
