The dose distribution evaluation program for the stereotactic radiosurgery treatment planning system using a gamma knife has been built in order to work on PC. And this custom-made dose distribution is compared with that of commercial treatment planning program. 201 source position of a radiation unit were determined manually using a gamma knife collimator draft and geometrical coordinates. Dose evaluation algorithm was modified for our purpose from the original KULA, a commercial treatment planning program. With the composed program, dose distribution at the center of a spherical phantom, 80 mm in diameter, was evaluated into axial, coronal and sagittal image per each collimator. Along with this evaluated data, the dose distribution at a arbitrary point of inside the phantom was compared with those from KULA. Radiochromic film was set up at the center of the phantom and was irradiated by gamma knife, for the verification of dose distribution. In result, the deviation of the dose distribution from that of KULA is less than ${\pm}$3%, which is equivalent to ${\pm}$0.3 mm in 50% isodose distribution for all examined coordinates and film verification. The custom-made program, GPl is proven to be a good tool for the stereotactic radiosurgery treatment planning program.
