Journal ArticleDOI
A 62 MeV proton beam for the treatment of ocular melanoma at Laboratori Nazionali del Sud-INFN (CATANIA)
G.A.P. Cirrone,Giacomo Cuttone,P. Lojacono,S. Lo Nigro,V. Mongelli,I.V. Patti,G. Privitera,Luigi Raffaele,Danilo Rifuggiato,Maria Gabriella Sabini,Vincenzo Salamone,Corrado Spatola,L. M. Valastro +12 more
TL;DR: The main features of CATANA together with the clinical and dosimetric features will be extensively reported; particularly, will be described the proton beam line, that has been entirely realized at LNS, with all its elements.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Geant4-based Monte Carlo Simulation of the Leksell Gamma Knife®
TL;DR: The obtained results encourage to use Monte Carlo Geant4 simulations to investigate problems concerning the stereotactic radiosurgery, also in the perspective of the simulation of a whole treatment session.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dosimetric characterization of CVD diamonds irradiated with 62 MeV proton beams
G.A.P. Cirrone,Giacomo Cuttone,S. Lo Nigro,S. Lo Nigro,V. Mongelli,V. Mongelli,Luigi Raffaele,Maria Gabriella Sabini,L.M. Valastro,Marta Bucciolini,Sandro Onori +10 more
TL;DR: This study shows the suitability of CVD diamond for dosimetry of clinical 62 MeV proton beams by investigating the response as function of dose, dose rate, the priming and the rise time.
The INFN Experience in the Hadron Therapy Field
Gap Cirrone,Giacomo Cuttone,D. Battaglia,L. Calabbretta,Luigi Celona,F. Di Rosa,P. Lojacono,Mario Maggiore,V. Mongelli,S. Lo Nigro,L. Piazza,V. I. Patti,Luigi Raffaele,M. Re,Danilo Rifuggiato,G. V. Russo,M. G. Sabini,Vincenzo Salamone,L. M. Valastro,Laboratori Nazionali del Sud +19 more
TL;DR: The actual status of the facility will be presented together with the idea of a new cycloron dedicated to the acceleration of light ions for hadron therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proton therapy detector studies under the experience gained at the CATANA facility
Giacomo Cuttone,G.A.P. Cirrone,F. Di Rosa,P. Lojacono,P. Lojacono,S. Lo Nigro,S. Lo Nigro,C. Marino,C. Marino,V. Mongelli,V. Mongelli,I.V. Patti,S. Pittera,S. Pittera,L. Raffaele,L. Raffaele,Giorgio Ivan Russo,Giorgio Ivan Russo,Maria Gabriella Sabini,V. Salamone,V. Salamone,L.M. Valastro,L.M. Valastro +22 more
TL;DR: The experience gained in the characterization of different dosimetric systems, studied and/or developed during the last ten years in the proton therapy facility are reported.
