Proton and carbon therapies of a human brain were simulated using FLUKA, with particular emphasis on treatment monitoring using the prompt gamma method where activities of the source proton/carbon in the patient’s body are to be extracted from the positional profile of exit photons. Tissue heterogeneity ranging from hydrogen to zinc was represented in a VIP-Man anthropomorphic voxel phantom. Each...
Real-time monitoring techniques are receiving increased attention due to their great potential for improving the precision of treatment delivery for hadron-therapy (HT). The study of prompt-γ(PG) focuses on the energetic photon radiation exiting the patient few nanoseconds after the beam irradiation. Its high intensity compared to other similar technologies like in-beam Positron Emission Tomography...
