A survey of hadron therapy accelerator technologies [PDF]

open access: yes2007 IEEE Particle Accelerator Conference (PAC), 2007
Hadron therapy has entered a new age [1]. The number of facilities grows steadily, and "consumer" interest is high. Some groups are working on new accelerator technology, while others optimize existing designs by reducing capital and operating costs, and improving performance.

Late effects from hadron therapy [PDF]

open access: yesRadiotherapy and Oncology, 2004
Successful cancer patient survival and local tumor control from hadron radiotherapy warrant a discussion of potential secondary late effects from the radiation. The study of late-appearing clinical effects from particle beams of protons, carbon, or heavier ions is a relatively new field with few data. However, new clinical information is available from

Helium-3 and helium-4 acceleration by high power laser pulses for hadron therapy [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Special Topics. Accelerators and Beams, 2015
The laser driven acceleration of ions is considered a promising candidate for an ion source for hadron therapy of oncological diseases. Though proton and carbon ion sources are conventionally used for therapy, other light ions can also be utilized ...

Studying the abundance of heavy nuclei produced in carbon therapy using Geant4 toolkit [PDF]

open access: yesمجله علوم و فنون هسته‌ای, 2023
Carbon-12 ion beams in the energy range of 100-450 MeV/u have excellent conditions for radiation-resistant and deep-seated tumors. At energies above 400 MeV/u, radiation is significantly affected by nuclear fragmentation processes of increasing depth. In

A high-resolution large-area detector for quality assurance in radiotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
Hadron therapy is an advanced radiation modality for treating cancer, which currently uses protons and carbon ions. Hadrons allow for a highly conformal dose distribution to the tumour, minimising the detrimental side-effects due to radiation received by
