Improved dose compensation model owing to short irradiation interruption time for hypoxic tumor using a microdosimetric kinetic model. [PDF]

open access: yesRep Pract Oncol Radiother
The objective was to enhance the biological compensation factor related to irradiation interruption in a short time (short irradiation interruption) in hypoxic tumors using a refined microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM) for photon radiation therapy.The biological dose differences were calculated for CHO-K1 cells exposed to a photon beam, considering ...

Sensitivity study of the microdosimetric kinetic model parameters for carbon ion radiotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics in Medicine & Biology, 2018
Abstract In carbon ion therapy treatment planning, the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) is accounted for by optimization of the RBE-weighted dose (biological dose). The RBE calculation methods currently applied clinically in carbon ion therapy are derived from the microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM) in ...

Impact of Microdosimetric Modeling on Computation of Relative Biological Effectiveness for Carbon Ion Radiotherapy

open access: yesRadiation
Microdosimetry plays a critical role in particle therapy by quantifying energy deposition within microscopic domains to assess biological effects. This study evaluates the influence of different microdosimetric functions (MFs) and domain geometries (DGs)

Generality Assessment of a Model Considering Heterogeneous Cancer Cells for Predicting Tumor Control Probability for Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Against Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesAdvances in Radiation Oncology
The generality of a model for predicting tumor control probability from in vitro clonogenic survival considering of cancer stem-like cells, the so-called integrated microdosimetric-kinetic model, is presented by comparing the model to public data on ...

Biological Dose Estimation for Charged-Particle Therapy Using an Improved PHITS Code Coupled With a Microdosimetric Kinetic Model

open access: yesRadiation Research, 2009
Microdosimetric quantities such as lineal energy, y, are better indexes for expressing the RBE of HZE particles in comparison to LET. However, the use of microdosimetric quantities in computational dosimetry is severely limited because of the difficulty ...

Evaluation of relative biological effectiveness of 225Ac and its decay daughters with Monte Carlo track structure simulations [PDF]

open access: yesEJNMMI Physics
Background 225Ac is a radionuclide that can be utilized in targeted alpha therapy (TAT). To accurately assess the absorbed dose and radiation effects in TAT, it is necessary to calculate the relative biological effectiveness (RBE).
