3D Scintillator Detector Quenching Characterization For Scanning Proton Beams
<p>Proton pencil beam scanning is becoming the standard treatment delivery technique for proton therapy centers. Scanned proton pencil beams provide a highly conformal dose distribution. The complex dose distribution poses challenges for quality assurance measurements leading to sophisticated …

Image-Guided Proton Therapy For Online Dose-Evaluation and Adaptive Planning
<p>The main advantage for using protons in radiotherapy is their finite range in patients, allowing for potential improved sparing of normal tissues. However, this comes at a cost of increased sensitivity to range uncertainties. Density changes along the beam path will affect the proton range and …
