A general purpose particle transport simulation code, PHITS is expected to apply dose evaluation in macroscopic systems as well as radiation interaction investigation in nanoscale for study of interaction between radiations and materials. To clear the problem, we implemented track structure calculation codes into the PHITS. The codes make microscopic behavior as well as energy depositions of the electrons, protons and carbon ions possible. As this implementation, DNA damage predictions will be expected using this track-structure simulation mode.
