Proton stopping power images from Monte Carlo simulated dual-energy CT scans
Adam Zieser, Ugur Akgun, Yasar Onel
We test the feasibility of calculating proton stopping power (SP) from a set of virtual monochromatic (VM) CT images, created with Monte Carlo-generated CT scans, using a dual-ener…

Reconstructed pCT Images Using Monte Carlo Simulations of a Scintillating Glass Detector
Adam Zieser, Ugur Akgun, Yasar Onel
The high cost and low image quality traditionally associated with proton computed tomography (pCT) have prevented it from seeing significant use in clinical settings. A cheap, comp…
