Ionization detail parameters and cluster dose: A mathematical model for selection of nanodosimetric quantities for use in treatment planning in charged particle radiotherapy
Bruce Faddegon, Eleanor A. Blakely, Lucas Burigo +9
Objective: To propose a mathematical model for applying Ionization Detail (ID), the detailed spatial distribution of ionization along a particle track, to proton and ion beam radio…
Multivariate error modeling and uncertainty quantification using importance (re-)weighting for Monte Carlo simulations in particle transport
Pia Stammer, Lucas Burigo, Oliver Jäkel +2
Fast and accurate predictions of uncertainties in the computed dose are crucial for the determination of robust treatment plans in radiation therapy. This requires the solution of…
Efficient uncertainty quantification for Monte Carlo dose calculations using importance (re-)weighting
Pia Stammer, Lucas Burigo, Oliver Jäkel +2
The high precision and conformity of intensity-modulated particle therapy (IMPT) comes at the cost of susceptibility to treatment uncertainties in particle range and patient set-up…
Impact of new ICRU90 key data on stopping-power ratios and beam quality correction factors for carbon ion beams
Lucas Burigo, Steffen Greilich
The recent update of dosimetric key data by the `International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements' impacts the computation of beam quality correction factors via…
Comparative study of RBE and cell survival fractions for H, He, C and O beams using Geant4 and Microdosimetric Kinetic model
Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1
Beams of He and O nuclei are considered for ion-beam cancer therapy as alternative options to protons and C nuclei. Spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) distributions o…
Microdosimetry spectra and RBE of H-1, He-4, Li-7 and C-12 nuclei in water studied with Geant4
Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1
A Geant4-based Monte Carlo model for Heavy-Ion Therapy (MCHIT) is used to study radiation fields of H-1, He-4, Li-7 and C-12 beams with similar ranges (~160-180 mm) in water. Micro…
Microdosimetry of radiation field from therapeutic C-12 beam in water: a study with Geant4 toolkit
Lucas Burigo, Igor Pshenichnov, Igor Mishustin +1
We model the responses of Tissue-Equivalent Proportional Counters (TEPC) to radiation fields of therapeutic C-12 beams in a water phantom and to quasi-monoenergetic neutrons in a P…
