FLASH radiotherapy: Research process from basic experimentation to clinical application

open access: yesPrecision Radiation Oncology, 2021
FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH‐RT) has gained attention as an ultra‐high dose rate RT in recent years. This treatment significantly shortens the time of RT and reduces the influence of tumor movement caused by breathing or other factors.

Key changes in the future clinical application of ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) is an external beam radiotherapy strategy that uses an extremely high dose rate (≥40 Gy/s). Compared with conventional dose rate radiotherapy (≤0.1 Gy/s), the main advantage of FLASH-RT is that it can reduce ...

The dresden platform is a research hub for ultra-high dose rate radiobiology

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The recently observed FLASH effect describes the observation of normal tissue protection by ultra-high dose rates (UHDR), or dose delivery in a fraction of a second, at similar tumor-killing efficacy of conventional dose delivery and promises great ...

Calorimeter for Real-Time Dosimetry of Pulsed Ultra-High Dose Rate Electron Beams

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2020
An aluminum calorimeter was investigated as a possible real-time dosimeter for electron beams with an ultra-high dose per pulse (DPP), as used in FLASH radiation therapy (a few Gy/pulse). Ionization chambers, the most widely used active dosimeter type in
