Images were used to create 3D polygon mesh models which were then tetrahedralized with delineated material properties. The models were subsequently incorporated into a Monte Carlo\u2010based radiation transport code and absorbed fractions\u2014defined as the fraction of particle energy emitted from a source region that is deposited within a target region\u2014were computed for the blood microvessels, lymphatic microvessels, and interstitial parenchyma tissue regions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A data set of absorbed fractions for alpha particles and electrons in each of the regions in the eight generated models acting as sources and targets was generated, noting the differences from previously used models that rely on a homogenization of both tissue and blood.
