Measurement of 80-200 MeV/n O nuclear cross-section on Carbon and Polyethylene targets with the nuclear emulsion detector of the FOOT experiment
FOOT Collaboration, Giuliana Galati, Vincenzo Boccia +93
Accurate knowledge of nuclear fragmentation cross-sections is essential for optimizing charged particle therapy. In this study, conducted within the framework of the FOOT (Fragment…
Mechanistic driven TCP and NTCP modeling for particle therapy accounting for a broad range of physical irradiation parameters and tissue environmental conditions
Marco Battestini, Jules Morand, Giulio Bordieri +3
In conventional radiotherapy, the probability of controlling tumor growth is quantified using Tumor Control Probability (TCP) models. Instead, the probability of experiencing a sid…
New method for clustering thresholds determination in Microstrip Silicon Detector
S. Mazzolani, I. Mattei, L. Servoli
The Microstrip Silicon Detector (MSD) is one of the subsystems of the FragmentatiOn Of Target (FOOT) experiment whose goal is to measure double differential nuclear fragmentation c…
A combined dose and microdosimetric modeling framework incorporating volume effects correlates with tissue sparing in proton minibeam radiotherapy
Giulio Bordieri, Marco Battestini, Gianluca Lattanzi +4
Proton minibeam (pMB) radiotherapy, delivers highly heterogeneous dose distributions alternating high-dose peaks and low-dose valleys. This aims to widen the therapeutic window by…
