Journal ArticleDOI
The FLUKA Code: An Accurate Simulation Tool for Particle Therapy.
Giuseppe Battistoni,Julia Bauer,T.T. Boehlen,Francesco Cerutti,M. P. W. Chin,R.S. Augusto,R.S. Augusto,Alfredo Ferrari,Pablo G. Ortega,Wioletta Kozlowska,Wioletta Kozlowska,Giuseppe Magro,Andrea Mairani,Katia Parodi,Paola Sala,P. Schoofs,Thomas Tessonnier,V. Vlachoudis +17 more
TL;DR: Refinements of the FLUKA nuclear models in the therapeutic energy interval lead to an improved description of the mixed radiation field as shown in the presented benchmarks against experimental data with both 4He and 12C ion beams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dosimetric commissioning and quality assurance of scanned ion beams at the Italian National Center for Oncological Hadrontherapy
Alfredo Mirandola,Silvia Molinelli,G. Vilches Freixas,Andrea Mairani,E. Gallio,D. Panizza,Stefania Russo,Mario Ciocca,M. Donetti,Giuseppe Magro,Simona Giordanengo,Roberto Orecchia +11 more
TL;DR: After successful dosimetric beam commissioning, quality assurance measurements performed during a 24-month period show very stable beam characteristics, which are therefore suitable for performing safe and accurate patient treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a commercial scintillation detector for 2-D dosimetry in scanned proton and carbon ion beams.
Stefania Russo,Alfredo Mirandola,Silvia Molinelli,Edoardo Mastella,A. Vai,Giuseppe Magro,Andrea Mairani,D. Boi,M. Donetti,Mario Ciocca +9 more
TL;DR: Preliminary results have shown that Lynx is suitable to be used for commissioning and QA checks for proton and carbon ion scanning beams; the cross-check with EBT3 films showed a good agreement between the two detectors, for both single spot and scanned field measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biologically optimized helium ion plans: Calculation approach and its in vitro validation
Andrea Mairani,I. Dokic,Giuseppe Magro,Thomas Tessonnier,Thomas Tessonnier,Florian Kamp,David J. Carlson,Mario Ciocca,F. Cerutti,Paola Sala,Arnaud Ferrari,T. T. Bohlen,Oliver Jäkel,Katia Parodi,Katia Parodi,Jürgen Debus,Amir Abdollahi,Thomas Haberer +17 more
TL;DR: A novel calculation approach based on integrating data-driven biological models in the Monte Carlo treatment planning (MCTP) tool suggests that the introduced approach could be applied for an accurate estimation of the biological effect for helium ion radiotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dose prescription in carbon ion radiotherapy: How to compare two different RBE-weighted dose calculation systems
Silvia Molinelli,Giuseppe Magro,Andrea Mairani,Naruhiro Matsufuji,Nobuyuki Kanematsu,Taku Inaniwa,Alfredo Mirandola,Stefania Russo,Edoardo Mastella,Azusa Hasegawa,Hiroshi Tsuji,Shigeru Yamada,Barbara Vischioni,Viviana Vitolo,Alfredo Ferrari,Mario Ciocca,Tadashi Kamada,Hirohiko Tsujii,Roberto Orecchia,Piero Fossati +19 more
TL;DR: Prescription dose conversion factors could minimize target physical dose variations due to the use of different radiobiological models in the calculation of CIRT RBE-weighted dose.
