R. Leanza,Fabrizio Romano,Valentina Scuderi,A.G. Amico,Giacomo Cuttone,Giuseppina Larosa,Daniele Margarone,G. Milluzzo,Giada Petringa,J. Pipek,Francesco Schillaci,G.A.P. Cirrone +11 more
TL;DR: A Faraday Cup for absolute dosimetry, designed and realized at INFN-LNS, is described and will be the first transport beamline dedicated to the medical and multidisciplinary studies with laser-accelerated ion beams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monte Carlo GEANT4-based application for in vivo RBE study using small animals at LNS-INFN preclinical hadrontherapy facility.
Pietro Pisciotta,Francesco Paolo Cammarata,Alessandro Stefano,F. Romano,V. Marchese,Filippo Torrisi,Giusi Irma Forte,Laura Cella,G.A.P. Cirrone,Giada Petringa,Maria Carla Gilardi,Giacomo Cuttone,Giorgio Ivan Russo +12 more
TL;DR: Different treatment configurations are studied in order to choose the best two that maximize the LET difference reducing as much as possible the dose released to healthy tissue and, in particular, for the future in vivo RBE studies.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Absolute and relative dosimetry for ELIMED
