Influence of nuclear interactions in polyethylene range compensators for carbon-ion radiotherapy
Nobuyuki Kanematsu, Yusuke Koba, Risa Ogata +1
\item[Purpose] A recent study revealed that polyethylene (PE) would cause extra carbon-ion attenuation per range shift by 0.45\%/cm due to compositional differences in nuclear inte…

Evaluation of plastic materials for range shifting, range compensation, and solid-phantom dosimetry in carbon-ion radiotherapy
Nobuyuki Kanematsu, Yusuke Koba, Risa Ogata
Purpose: Beam range control is the essence of radiotherapy with heavy charged particles. In conventional broad-beam delivery, fine range adjustment is achieved by insertion of rang…
