DOSE-Analyzer is a computer program to retrieve the dose information from a database and generate a graph through a user-friendly graphical interface. The database is constructed for absorbed dose, fluence, and energy distribution inside a body of mouse and human exposed upon external neutrons, which is calculated by our developed Monte-Carlo simulation method using voxel-type phantom and particle transport code PHITS. The input configuration such as irradiation geometry, subject, and energy is set by GUI. The results are tabulated at particle types, i.e. electron, proton, deuteron, triton, and alpha particle, and target organs on a data sheet of Microsoft Office Excel. Simple analysis to compare the output values for two subjects is also performed on DOSE-Analyzer. This report is a user manual of DOSE-Analyzer.
