      The Monte-Carlo method is used to solve a transport equation. The photon path models use a modified majorizing cross-section technique which permits to avoid difficulties associated with tabulating pho- ton/medium interaction cross-sections. A majorizing cross-section, when properly chosen, yields a model efficiency at least of 0,5. Our results are in a good agreement with data reported by other authors.
