Journal ArticleDOI

Fred: a GPU-accelerated fast-Monte Carlo code for rapid treatment plan recalculation in ion beam therapy.

TL;DR: The development of fred is reported on, a new MC simulation platform for treatment planning in ion beam therapy that can transport particles through a 3D voxel grid using a class II MC algorithm, and the most refined module is the transport of proton beams in water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design of a new tracking device for on-line beam range monitor in carbon therapy.

TL;DR: The design of a new tracking device for beam range real-time monitoring in pencil beam carbon ion therapy is presented and detector reconstruction efficiency for charged particle emission profile is evaluated using a Monte Carlo simulation considering a quasi-realistic case of a non-homogenous phantom.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time Evolution of DOTATOC Uptake in Neuroendocrine Tumors in View of a Possible Application of Radioguided Surgery with β− Decay

TL;DR: If 90Y-DOTATOC is used with liver NET metastases, the proposed RGS technique is believed to be feasible by injecting an activity that is one third of that commonly used for PET imaging, and this characteristic can be exploited when a radiotracer with a long half-life, such as 90Y, is used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of charged particle yields from therapeutic beams in view of the design of an innovative hadrontherapy dose monitor

TL;DR: In this article, the secondary particle production (charged fragments and prompt particles) performed at different beam and energies have been investigated for particle therapy applications, and it has been showed that the hadron beam dose release peak can be spatially correlated with the emission pattern of these secondary particles.
