Positrons and electrons sometimes exist as a bound state, positronium (Ps), in living organisms. The triplet Ps (ortho-Ps) annihilation time represents the ortho-Ps pick-off annihilation lifetime, and it varies depending on the surrounding electron density. The ortho-Ps lifetime may add new biological information to PET scan information. In order to discuss the feasibility of quantifying (free) radicals in vivo by the ortho-Ps lifetime, we used a clinical PET system to make ortho-Ps lifetime measurements in aqueous solutions containing radicals. The results suggested that differences in radical concentrations in aqueous solutions of the order of a few mM could be quantified by the ortho-Ps lifetime if the counting statistic of the positron annihilation events was more than 10$$^{8}$$ events. This concentration was higher than the radical concentration generated in the physiological functions of living organisms.

Previously, we have developed DynamicMC for modelling relative movement of ORNL phantom in a radiation field for MCNP. Using this software, 3-dimensional dose distributions in a phantom irradiated by a certain mono-energetic source can be deduced through its graphical user interface (GUI). In this study, we extended DynamicMC to be used in combination with the PHITS by providing it with a higher flexibility for dynamic movement for a less sophisticated anthropomorphic phantom. We anticipate that the present work and the developed open-source tools will be in the interest of nuclear radiation physics community for research and teaching purposes.
