Recent Advancements of Artificial Intelligence in Particle Therapy
Hao Peng, Chao Wu, Dan Nguyen +4
We are in a golden age of progress in artificial intelligence (AI). Radiotherapy, due to its technology-intensive nature as well as direct human-machine interactions, is perfectly…
Nano-scale simulation of neuronal damage by galactic cosmic rays
Jonah S. Peter, Jan Schuemann, Kathryn D. Held +1
The effects of complex, mixed-ion radiation fields on neuronal function remain largely unexplored. Here, we present a complete analysis of the nano-scale physics associated with br…
Modeling the impact of tissue oxygen profiles and oxygen depletion parameter uncertainties on biological response and therapeutic benefit of FLASH
Hongyu Zhu, Jan Schuemann, Qixian Zhang +1
FLASH radiation has been reported to efficiently suppress tumor growth while sparing normal tissue, however, the mechanism of the differential tissue sparing effect is still not kn…
Consistency checks of results from a Monte Carlo code intercomparison for emitted electron spectra and energy deposition around a single gold nanoparticle irradiated by X-rays
H. Rabus, W. B. Li, H. Nettelbeck +9
Organized by the European Radiation Dosimetry Group (EURADOS), a Monte Carlo code intercomparison exercise was conducted where participants simulated the emitted electron spectra a…
Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Particle Radiotherapy
Chao Wu, Dan Nguyen, Jan Schuemann +3
Radiotherapy, due to its technology-intensive nature and reliance on digital data and human-machine interactions, is particularly suited to benefit from artificial intelligence (AI…
Intercomparison of Monte Carlo calculated dose enhancement ratios for gold nanoparticles irradiated by X-rays: assessing the uncertainty and correct methodology for extended beams
H. Rabus, W. B. Li, C. Villagrasa +10
Results of a Monte Carlo code intercomparison exercise for simulations of the dose enhancement from a gold nanoparticle (GNP) irradiated by X-rays have been recently reported. To h…
Improving Proton Dose Calculation Accuracy by Using Deep Learning
Chao Wu, Dan Nguyen, Yixun Xing +5
Accurate dose calculation is vitally important for proton therapy. Pencil beam (PB) model-based dose calculation is fast but inaccurate due to the approximation when dealing with i…
