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.

Radioactive Beams in Particle Therapy: Past, Present, and Future

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2020
Heavy ion therapy can deliver high doses with high precision. However, image guidance is needed to reduce range uncertainty. Radioactive ions are potentially ideal projectiles for radiotherapy because their decay can be used to visualize the beam ...

Investigating Slit-Collimator-Produced Carbon Ion Minibeams with High-Resolution CMOS Sensors

open access: yesInstruments, 2023
Particle minibeam therapy has demonstrated the potential for better healthy tissue sparing due to spatial fractionation of the delivered dose. Especially for heavy ions, the spatial fractionation could enhance the already favorable differential ...

Targeted Central Nervous System Irradiation of Caenorhabditis elegans Induces a Limited Effect on Motility

open access: yesBiology, 2020
To clarify the tissue responsible for a biological function, that function can be experimentally perturbed by an external stimulus, such as radiation. Radiation can be precisely and finely administered and any subsequent change in function examined.

Does the combination of hyperthermia with low LET (linear energy transfer) radiation induce anti-tumor effects equivalent to those seen with high LET radiation alone?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2021
Introduction The combination of hyperthermia with low LET (linear energy transfer) radiation may have similar anti-tumor effects as high LET radiation alone.

Performance of upstream interaction region detectors for the FIRST experiment at GSI [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The FIRST (Fragmentation of Ions Relevant for Space and Therapy) experiment at GSI has been designed to study carbon fragmentation, measuring 12C double differential cross sections (∂2σ/ ∂θ∂E) for different beam energies between 100 and 1000 MeV/u.

Bright, green fluorescent carbon dots for sensitive and selective detection of ferrous ions

open access: yesTalanta Open, 2023
Iron is critical to living organisms; excess or lack of iron could lead to a series of diseases. In this work, fluorescent carbon dots were developed as an efficient probe for sensitive and selective detection of ferrous ions (Fe2+).
