Adaptation of stochastic microdosimetric kinetic model to hypoxia for hypo-fractionated multi-ion therapy treatment planning

Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2021
Abstract For hypo-fractionated multi-ion therapy (HFMIT), the stochastic microdosimetric kinetic (SMK) model had been developed to estimate the biological effectiveness of radiation beams with wide linear energy transfer (LET) and dose ranges.

Treatment planning for a scanned carbon beam with a modified microdosimetric kinetic model

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2010
We describe a method to calculate the relative biological effectiveness in mixed radiation fields of therapeutic ion beams based on the modified microdosimetric kinetic model (modified MKM). In addition, we show the procedure for integrating the modified MKM into a treatment planning system for a scanned carbon beam.

Implementation of the microdosimetric kinetic model using analytical microdosimetry in a treatment planning system for proton therapy

Physica Medica, 2021
To implement RBE calculations in treatment planning systems based on the Microdosimetric Kinetic Model (MKM) upon analytical calculations of dose-mean lineal energy (yD). MKM relies on the patterns of energy deposition in sub-nuclear structures called domains, whose radii are cell-specific and need to be determined.The radius of a domain (rd) can be ...

LET‐based approximation of the microdosimetric kinetic model for proton radiotherapy

Medical Physics
AbstractBackgroundPhenomenological relative biological effectiveness (RBE) models for proton therapy, based on the dose‐averaged linear energy transfer (LET), have been developed to address the apparent RBE increase towards the end of the proton range.

A Microdosimetric-Kinetic Model of Cell Killing by Irradiation from Permanently Incorporated Radionuclides

Radiation Research, 2018
An expression for the surviving fraction of a replicating population of cells exposed to permanently incorporated radionuclide is derived from the microdosimetric-kinetic model. It includes dependency on total implant dose, linear energy transfer (LET), decay rate of the radionuclide, the repair rate of potentially lethal lesions in DNA and the volume ...

A Microdosimetric-Kinetic Model for Cell Killing by Protracted Continuous Irradiation II: Brachytherapy and Biologic Effective Dose

Radiation Research, 2014
Relationships based on the microdosimetric-kinetic model are presented that calculate the average number of lethal lesions, and the associated cell survival, produced in mammalian cells by exposure to protracted continuous irradiation by temporary and permanent implantation of radioactive sources.

Optimizing the modified microdosimetric kinetic model input parameters for proton and4He ion beam therapy application

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2017
Models able to predict relative biological effectiveness (RBE) values are necessary for an accurate determination of the biological effect with proton and 4He ion beams. This is particularly important when including RBE calculations in treatment planning studies comparing biologically optimized proton and 4He ion beam plans.

Incorporating boron distribution variations in microdosimetric kinetic model-based relative biological effectiveness calculations for boron neutron capture therapy

Radiation Protection Dosimetry
Abstract This study introduces the MKM_B model, an approach derived from the MKM model, designed to evaluate the biological effectiveness of Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) in the face of challenges from varying microscopic boron distributions. The model introduces a boron compensation factor, allowing for the assessment of compound
