Toward Ionization Cluster Size Measurements with a Compact Nanodosimeter
Victor Merza, Aleksandr Bancer, Vladimir Bashkirov +8
Nanodosimetry aims to provide measurable quantities related to the nanoscopic particle track structure, which determines the biological effectiveness of radiation. While simulated…
Experimental and Monte Carlo Simulation Studies to Investigate the Working Principle of Compact Nanodosimeters
Victor Merza, Aleksandr Bancer, Vladimir Bashkirov +9
In recent years, compact nanodosimetric detectors based on ion multiplication in low-pressure gas have been developed and gained attention in the scientific community. These detect…
A Prototype Scintillator Real-Time Beam Monitor for Ultra-high Dose Rate Radiotherapy
Daniel S. Levin, Peter S. Friedman, Claudio Ferretti +5
FLASH Radiotherapy (RT) is a potentially new cancer radiotherapy technique where an entire therapeutic dose is delivered in about 0.1 s and at ~1000 times higher dose rate than in…
A Highly Accelerated Parallel Multi-GPU based Reconstruction Algorithm for Generating Accurate Relative Stopping Powers
Paniz Karbasi, Ritchie Cai, Blake Schultze +11
Low-dose Proton Computed Tomography (pCT) is an evolving imaging modality that is used in proton therapy planning which addresses the range uncertainty problem. The goal of pCT is…
Results from a Prototype Proton-CT Head Scanner
R. P. Johnson, V. A. Bashkirov, G. Coutrakon +8
We are exploring low-dose proton radiography and computed tomography (pCT) as techniques to improve the accuracy of proton treatment planning and to provide artifact-free images fo…
Mapping the Sensitive Volume of an Ion-Counting Nanodosimeter
Reinhard Schulte, Vladimir Bashkirov, Sergei Shchemelinin +5
We present two methods of independently mapping the dimensions of the sensitive volume in an ion-counting nanodosimeter. The first method is based on a calculational approach simul…
