Comparing fast imaging techniques for individual pulse imaging by Cherenkov in vivo from electron FLASH irradiation

TL;DR: This study investigates a fast-imaging technique of the first in vivo Cherenkov emission from an UHDR irradiator using an intensified CMOS camera and the effects of an intensifier (photocathode) on the image quality were considered concerning signal to noise ratio and spatial resolution.

Fractionated FLASH radiation in xenografted lung tumors induced FLASH effect at a split dose of 2 Gy.

TL;DR: In this paper , the minimum split dose of FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH) was explored in the lungs of nude mice, and the effect of the FLASH effect on normal tissue sparing was evaluated.

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.
