Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the use and potential of the GATE Monte Carlo simulation code for radiation therapy and dosimetry applications
David Sarrut,Manuel Bardiès,Nicolas Boussion,Nicolas Freud,Sébastien Jan,Jean Michel Létang,George Loudos,Lydia Maigne,Sara Marcatili,Thibault Mauxion,Panagiotis Papadimitroulas,Yann Perrot,Uwe Pietrzyk,Charlotte Robert,Dennis R. Schaart,Dimitris Visvikis,Irène Buvat +16 more
TL;DR: The authors' review the applicability of the open-source GATE Monte Carlo simulation platform based on the GEANT4 toolkit for radiation therapy and dosimetry applications and the computational times associated with several applications are provided to illustrate the practical feasibility of the simulations using current computing facilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the application of x-ray microtomography in the field of materials science
Eric Maire,Jean-Yves Buffiere,Luc Salvo,Jean-Jacques Blandin,Wolfgang Ludwig,Jean Michel Létang +5 more
TL;DR: The principle of the tomography technique and the different possible set-ups, which can be used to obtain medium-10 lm and high-1 lm resolution, three-dimensional, non-destructive images, are shown in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-ray tomography applied to the characterization of cellular materials. Related finite element modeling problems
Eric Maire,Arnaud Fazekas,Luc Salvo,Rémy Dendievel,Souhail Youssef,Peter Cloetens,Jean Michel Létang +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the analysis of several materials exhibiting a cellular structure using X-ray tomography was carried out using finite element methods, which allowed the three dimensional and non destructive visualisation of the studied materials at the scale of their cellular microstructure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prompt-gamma monitoring in hadrontherapy: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review and discussion of the state of the art for all techniques using prompt-gamma detection to improve the quality assurance in hadrontherapy is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring the Bragg peak location of 73 MeV/u carbon ions by means of prompt $\gamma$-ray measurements
Etienne Testa,M. Bajard,Marius Chevallier,Denis Dauvergne,F. Le Foulher,J.-C. Poizat,Cédric Ray,M. Testa,Nicolas Freud,Jean Michel Létang +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the longitudinal profile of prompt gamma-rays emitted by 73 MeV/u $^{13}$C ions irradiating a PMMA target was measured by means of a time-of-flight technique.
