Stopping power monitoring during proton therapy by means of prompt gamma timing: first experimental results with a homogeneous phantom
Julius Werner, Francesco Pennazio, Piergiorgio Cerello +11
Proton therapy's full potential is limited by uncertainties that prevent optimal dose distribution. Monitoring techniques can reduce these uncertainties and enable adaptive treatme…

Characterization of a modified clinical linear accelerator for ultra-high dose rate electron beam delivery
Umberto Deut, Aurora Camperi, Cristiano Cavicchi +15
Irradiations at Ultra High Dose Rate (UHDR) regimes, exceeding 40 Gy/s in single fractions lasting less than 200 ms, have shown an equivalent antitumor effect compared to conventio…

Data acquisition system for a 146-channel counter of protons in particle therapy
S. Giordanengo, M. Abujami, C. Galeone +10
A prototype of proton counter was developed by the University and the National Institute for Nuclear Physics of Torino to be used as online fluence beam monitor in particle therapy…
