Recent progress and future plan of heavy-ion cancer radiotherapy with HIMAC
The HIMAC clinical study has been conducted with a carbon-ion beam since June 1994. The total number of patients treated was around 10,000 as of March 2016.

ABSTRACT Background Recent advances in systemic therapy, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), have improved outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and enabled downstaging strategies that allow subsequent local treatments. Carbon‐ion radiotherapy (CIRT) can provide excellent tumor control with minimal

Evaluation of base materials of TL slab Dosimeter for heavy-ion radiotherapy
In order to measure a three-dimensional dose distribution in X-ray radiotherapy, we developed TL slab dosimeter with new TL phosphor Li3B7O12(Cu), which has Zeff = 7.42 and a density of 1.01 g/cm3 and synthetic resin as binder.

Results of heavy ion radiotherapy
The potential of heavy ion therapy for clinical use in cancer therapy stems from the biological parameters of heavy charged particles, and their precise dose localization.

ABSTRACT Background Parathyroidectomy is the treatment for primary hyperparathyroidism, yet postoperative hypocalcemia and hungry bone syndrome remain common. Vitamin D deficiency has been suggested as a modifiable risk factor, but evidence supporting preoperative supplementation is inconsistent.

Carbon ion radiotherapy at NIRS
In 1994, carbon ion radiotherapy was begun at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences using the Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba, which was the worlds rst heavy ion accelerator complex dedicated to medical use in a hospital ...

Abstract Background Accurate range verification is crucial in hadrontherapy to fully exploit the ballistic advantages of charged particles and prevent damage to healthy tissues. Among the proposed approaches, prompt gamma imaging (PGI) has emerged as an effective technique for real‐time monitoring, but its performance is limited by the intense neutron ...

Abstract Background FLASH radiotherapy requires further preclinical and clinical investigation to establish its biological effectiveness and define optimal beam parameters. In conventional (CONV) radiotherapy, redundant beam termination systems are a cornerstone ensuring patient safety, yet analogous safeguards for FLASH delivery are not well ...
