Characterization of the proton pulsed beam at CMAM

TL;DR: In this article, a pulsed beam has been characterized with an 8 MeV proton beam, using an existing equipment at CMAM: two pairs of electrostatic plates (RASTER) that deflect the beam, commonly used for homogeneous irradiation of large areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive analysis of the relationship between dose-rate and biological effects in pre-clinical and clinical studies, from brachytherapy to flattening filter-free radiation therapy and FLASH irradiation.

TL;DR: In this article , a critical review of preclinical and clinical studies to investigate the biological and clinical effects of dose rate variation in the range covering brachytherapy to flattening filter free EBRT and FLASH is presented.

Longitudinal Compression of Macro Relativistic Electron Beam

TL;DR: In this paper , a longitudinal bunch train compression method was proposed for manipulating relativistic electron beam in range of hundreds of meters, which has the potential to compress the electron beam generated by a conditional linear accelerator with a high ratio and raise its power to an high level comparable with large induction accelerators.

Effects of Flash Radiotherapy on Blood Lymphocytes in Humans and Small Laboratory Animals

- 24 Jan 2023 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , a mathematical model which describes the level of surviving lymphocytes in the blood after ultra-high (FLASH) and lower dose rates of partial-body irradiation, is developed.

AAPM's TG-51 protocol for clinical reference dosimetry of high-energy photon and electron beams.

TL;DR: This protocol represents a major simplification compared to the AAPM's TG-21 protocol in the sense that large tables of stopping-power ratios and mass-energy absorption coefficients are not needed and the user does not need to calculate any theoretical dosimetry factors.

Radiation-induced impairment of hippocampal neurogenesis is associated with cognitive deficits in young mice

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that irradiation of young animals induces a long-term impairment of dentate subgranular zone neurogenesis that is associated with hippocampal-dependent memory deficits.
