A YAG:Ce calorimeter with a 6×6 cm2 active area, long 10 cm has been manufactured in order to stop up to 200 MeV protons and to sustain 1MHz particle rate. It consists of four optically separated crystals assembled in the same housing. The YAG:Ce scintillator is promising for charged particle detection applications where high-count rate, good energy resolution and compact photodiode readout, not influenced...
Proton Computed Tomography (pCT) is a new imaging method with a potential for increasing accuracy of treatment planning and patient positioning in hadron therapy. A pCT system with small active area (5cm×5cm) has been already manufactured by authors. Tested under proton beams gave first promising results on radiography and tomographic reconstructions. Recent developments of a second prototype with...
Proton therapy is a precise forms of radiation therapy that makes use of high energy proton compared to the conventional, more commonly used and less precise x-ray and electron beams. On the other hand, to fully exploit the proton therapy advantages, very accurate quality controls of the treatments are required. These are mainly related to the dose calculations and treatment planning. Actually dose...
