A frontend ASIC for microdosimetry
Journal of InstrumentationAbstract Recent clinical evidence shows a correlation between LET and tumor control in carbon ion radiotherapy. This prompts the direct inclusion of LET into the treatment planning. Currently, LET is mainly extracted from simulations.

Two miniaturised TEPCs in a single detector for BNCT microdosimetry
, 2006 Microdosimetry with tissue-equivalent proportional counters (TEPC) has proven to be an ideal dosimetry technique for mixed radiation fields as those ones used in boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT).

Microdosimetry of diagnostic X-rays: applications of the variance-covariance method. [PDF]
, 1992 Microdosimetric measurements in beams of diagnostic X rays (between 30 and 125 kV) have been performed. In these pulsed radiation fields, microdosimetric measurements are possible only by application of the variance-covariance technique.

A multi-site microdosimeter for clinical beam characterization
Frontiers in SensorsDifferent types of radiation cause varying levels of biological damage, even when the physical dose is the same, due to the unique way energy is distributed at the subcellular level.

Silicon Microdosimetry in Heterogeneous Materials: Simulation and Experiment
, 2006 Microdosimetry spectra obtained experimentally utilizing a Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) microdosimeter within biological materials, was used to provide information on secondary radiation spectra at tissue boundaries.

Effectiveness of double-layer beam shaping assembly neutron beam for boron neutron capture therapy: A microdosimetric study using particle and heavy ion transport code system [PDF]
Ядерна фізика та енергетикаBoron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a cancer therapy currently under development. The key to successful BNCT therapy depends on the ability of 10B to be distributed within cells and the quality of the neutrons being used.

Verification of Monte Carlo calculations in fast neutron therapy using silicon microdosimetry
, 2004 Silicon microdosimetry measurements in Fast Neutron Therapy were simulated using the GEANT4 Monte Carlo toolkit. The possibility of using silicon microdosimeters for verification of Monte Carlo based treatment planning systems in hadron therapy is ...
