Complexity-weighted doses reduce biological uncertainty in proton radiotherapy planning
Stephen J McMahon, Harald Paganetti, Kevin M Prise
Purpose: Variations in proton Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) with Linear Energy Transfer (LET) remain one of the largest sources of uncertainty in proton radiotherapy. Thi…
Optimising Element Choice for Nanoparticle Radiosensitisers
Stephen J. McMahon, Harald Paganetti, Kevin M. Prise
There is considerable interest in the use of heavy atom nanoparticles as theranostic contrast agents due to their high radiation cross-section compared to soft tissue. However, pub…
Validation of nuclear models in Geant4 using the dose distribution of a 177 MeV proton pencil beam
David C. Hall, Anastasia Makarova, Harald Paganetti +1
A proton pencil beam is associated with a surrounding low-dose envelope, originating from nuclear interactions. It is important for treatment planning systems to accurately model t…
