Cell survival comparison of proton, helium, and carbon ion interlaced minibeams in water phantom simulations. [PDF]

Med Phys
Abstract Background Radiotherapy is a key in cancer treatment, with particle therapy providing better tumor targeting and sparing healthy tissues. Particle Minibeam Radiotherapy (PMBT) integrates the advantages of spatial fractionation into particle radiotherapy by employing submillimeter‐sized beams, thus improving the therapeutic ratio by reducing ...

Development of a Thick Gas Electron Multiplier Detector for Microdosimetry [PDF]

, 2010
In experimental microdosimetry one of the goals is to measure the absorbed dose in microscopic volumes of tissue. The traditional spherical tissue-equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) is the most common detector currently used for microdosimetry.

Microdosimetry

Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Rendiconti di Scienze, 2023
The interest in the application of microdosimetry for assessing the radiation quality of hadrontherapy fields has grown in the last two decades. The reference detector for microdosimetry is the tissue-equivalent proportional counter (TEPC). Novel types of microdosimeters have been developed by the Nuclear Measurement Laboratory of the Politecnico di ...
