Feasibility study of a 2D Amorphous Silicon-based Detector for Proton Therapy [PDF]
New particle therapy modalities, including ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) proton therapy, present various challenges for particle detectors used in patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA).

Comparison of established and emerging biodosimetry assays [PDF]
Rapid biodosimetry tools are required to assist with triage in the case of a large-scale radiation incident. Here, we aimed to determine the dose-assessment accuracy of the well-established dicentric chromosome assay (DCA) and cytokinesis-block ...

Extending the panel of inelastic scattering reactions availaible for dosimetry: Definition of the experimental campaign at the JSI TRIGA reactor [PDF]
The epithermal to fast neutron domain lacks reactions to enhance the knowledge of spectrum in this energy range (1 keV to 1 MeV). Previous studies on this topic focused on 94Zr(n, γ) capture and 117Sn(n, n′) inelastic reactions.

The micronucleus assay as a biological dosimeter of in vivo ionising radiation exposure [PDF]
Biological dosimetry, based on the analysis of micronuclei (MN) in the cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay can be used as an alternative method for scoring dicentric chromosomes in the field of radiation protection.

An open-label, one-arm, dose-escalation study to evaluate safety and tolerability of extremely low frequency magnetic fields in acute ischemic stroke [PDF]
Extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELF-MF) could be an alternative neuroprotective approach for ischemic stroke because preclinical studies have demonstrated their effects on the mechanisms underlying ischemic damage. The purpose of this open-label,
