Depth-dose distribution of proton beams using inelastic-collision cross sections of liquid water
0168-583X/$ see front matter 2010 Elsevier B.V. doi:10.1016/j.nimb.2010.10.013 ⇑ Corresponding author. E-mail addresses: [email protected], mortez [email protected] (M. Aslaninejad). Complete physical processes contributing to the shape of the depth-dose distribution and the so-called Bragg peak of proton beams passing through liquid water are given. Height, width and depth of the Bragg...
متن کاملDose estimation with the calibration of dose-response curve of micronucleus in human peripheral lymphocytes induced by 50MeV proton beams
Background: The purpose of this paper is to establish an easy and reliable biodosimeter protocol to evaluate the biological effects of proton beams. Materials and Methods: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes were irradiated using proton beams (LET: 34.6 keV μm−1), and the chromosome aberrations induced were analyzed using cytokinesis-blocked (CB) micronucleus (MN) assay. To determine th...
متن کاملMonte Carlo-based parametrization of the lateral dose spread for clinical treatment planning of scanned proton and carbon ion beams
Ion beam therapy using state-of-the-art pencil-beam scanning offers unprecedented tumour-dose conformality with superior sparing of healthy tissue and critical organs compared to conventional radiation modalities for external treatment of deep-seated tumours. For inverse plan optimization, the commonly employed analytical treatment-planning systems (TPSs) have to meet reasonable compromises in ...
متن کاملThe role of nonelastic reactions in absorbed dose distributions from therapeutic proton beams in different medium.
Many new techniques for delivering radiation therapy are being developed for the treatment of cancer. One of these, proton therapy, is becoming increasingly popular because of the precise way in which protons deliver dose to the tumor volume. In order to achieve this level of precision, extensive treatment planning needs to be carried out to determine the optimum beam energies, energy spread (w...
