Radioactive Beams for Image-Guided Particle Therapy: The BARB Experiment at GSI

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Several techniques are under development for image-guidance in particle therapy. Positron (β+) emission tomography (PET) is in use since many years, because accelerated ions generate positron-emitting isotopes by nuclear fragmentation in the human body ...

Ultra-High Dose-Rate, Pulsed (FLASH) Radiotherapy with Carbon Ions: Generation of Early, Transient, Highly Oxygenated Conditions in the Tumor Environment. [PDF]

open access: yesRadiat Res, 2020
It is well known that molecular oxygen is a product of the radiolysis of water with high-linear energy transfer (LET) radiation, which is distinct from low-LET radiation wherein O2 radiolytic yield is negligible.

In Vitro Effects of Photon Beam and Carbon Ion Radiotherapy on the Perineural Invasion of Two Cell Lines of Neurotropic Tumours

open access: yesLife, 2023
Primary mucosal melanoma (PMM) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are two aggressive malignancies, characterized by intrinsic radio-chemoresistance and neurotropism, a histological feature resulting in frequent perineural invasion (PNI ...

Factors released by low and high-LET irradiated fibroblasts modulate migration and invasiveness of pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
IntroductionRadiotherapy represents a major treatment option for patients with pancreatic cancer, however, its benefits remain limited also due to the ability of cancer cells to migrate to the surrounding tissues. Low-LET ionizing radiation is well known

Monitoring Carbon Ion Beams Transverse Position Detecting Charged Secondary Fragments: Results From Patient Treatment Performed at CNAO

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Particle therapy in which deep seated tumours are treated using 12C ions (Carbon Ions RadioTherapy or CIRT) exploits the high conformity in the dose release, the high relative biological effectiveness and low oxygen enhancement ratio of such projectiles.
