Evaluation of a Faraday cup‐style detector as a beam diagnostic system for ultra‐high dose rate (FLASH) electron beams

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Background Beam diagnostic systems are essential for the development and quality assurance of ultra‐high dose rate (UHDR) radiation sources to enable reliable delivery of FLASH radiotherapy (RT). Critically, suitable beam diagnostic systems for electron FLASH sources are lacking.

Radiotherapy‐Induced Side Effects: Epidemiology, Pathogenesis, Prevention and Treatments

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
Radiotherapy for malignancies frequently injures the organs’ systems through oxidative stress, fibrosis, inflammation, and vascular damage. This review systematically maps the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and emerging therapies to propose a mechanism‑network‑targeted framework for integrated, personalized care in radiation oncology.
