Back with Weight: Revisiting Very Heavy Ions for Precision Radiotherapy
Jeannette Jansen, Olga Sokol, Yolanda Prezado +1
Accelerated charged particles offer significant physical advantages over X-rays in radiotherapy. In addition to their superior depth-dose distribution, heavy ions provide notable b…
First image-guided treatment of a mouse tumor with radioactive ion beams
Daria Boscolo, Giulio Lovatti, Olga Sokol +16
Radioactive ion beams (RIB) are a key focus of current research in nuclear physics. Already long ago it was proposed that they could have applications in cancer therapy. In fact, w…
Range margin reduction in carbon ion therapy: potential benefits of using radioactive ion beams
Olga Sokol, Laura Cella, Daria Boscolo +11
Radiotherapy with heavy ions, in particular, 12C beams, is one of the most advanced forms of cancer treatment. Sharp dose gradients and high biological effectiveness in the target…
