The detection of patients at risk of gastrointestinal toxicity during pelvic radiotherapy by electronic nose and FAIMS : a pilot study [PDF]
It is well known that the electronic nose can be used to identify differences between human health and disease for a range of disorders. We present a pilot study to investigate if the electronic nose and a newer technology, FAIMS (Field Asymmetric Ion ...

Measurement of charged particle yields from therapeutic beams in view of the design of an innovative hadrontherapy dose monitor [PDF]
Particle Therapy (PT) is an emerging technique, which makes use of charged particles to efficiently cure different kinds of solid tumors. The high precision in the hadrons dose deposition requires an accurate monitoring to prevent the risk of under ...

Difference in Acquired Radioresistance Induction Between Repeated Photon and Particle Irradiation
In recent years, advanced radiation therapy techniques, including stereotactic body radiotherapy and carbon–ion radiotherapy, have progressed to such an extent that certain types of cancer can be treated with radiotherapy alone.

Carbon ion radiotherapy for inoperable pediatric osteosarcoma [PDF]
Unresectable pediatric osteosarcoma has poor outcomes with conventional treatments.Twenty-six patients aged 11-20 years (median 16) had inoperable osteosarcoma of the trunk (24 pelvic, 1 mediastinal and 1 paravertebral) without any other lesion at initial examination. There were 22 primary, 1 locally recurrent and 3 metastatic cases.
