Particle therapy masterclass [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 The aim of the new Particle Therapy MasterClass (PTMC) was to develop an educational and training environment in which anyone can learn about fundamental and applied research in particle therapy. The PTMC was recently integrated into the International MasterClass 2021 online programme that attracted 1500 students from 37 institutes in 20 countries ...

Particle therapy in Europe [PDF]
Molecular Oncology, 2020 Particle therapy using protons or heavier ions is currently the most advanced form of radiotherapy and offers new opportunities for improving cancer care and research. Ions deposit the dose with a sharp maximum – the Bragg peak – and normal tissue receives a much lower dose than what is delivered by X‐ray therapy.

Particle Therapy for Breast Cancer [PDF]
Cancers, 2022 Particle therapy has received increasing attention in the treatment of breast cancer due to its unique physical properties that may enhance patient quality of life and reduce the late effects of therapy. In this review, we will examine the rationale for the use of proton and carbon therapy in the treatment of breast cancer and highlight their potential

Scintillating fiber devices for particle therapy applications [PDF]
, 2018 Particle Therapy (PT) is a radiation therapy technique in which solid tumors are treated with charged ions and exploits the achievable highly localized dose delivery, allowing to spare healthy tissues and organs at risk.

Physics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2021 Background and purpose: Photons and protons have fundamentally different properties, i.e. protons have a reduced dose bath but a higher relative biological effectiveness. Photon-based normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models may therefore not

Inhalable spray-dried chondroitin sulphate microparticles: effect of different solvents on particle properties and drug activity [PDF]
, 2020 Spray-drying stands as one of the most used techniques to produce inhalable microparticles, but several parameters from both the process and the used materials affect the properties of the resulting microparticles.

Treatment plan comparison of proton vs photon radiotherapy for lower-grade gliomas
Physics and Imaging in Radiation Oncology, 2021 Background and purpose: Patients with lower-grade gliomas are long-term survivors after radiotherapy and may benefit from the reduced dose to normal tissue achievable with proton therapy.
