The latest implementation of our pencil beam dose calculation algorithm for proton beams within the 3D Slicer open-source environment fulfills all the conditions described above. Methods: The core dose calculation algorithm is based on the Hong algorithm (1), which was upgraded with the Kanematsu ...
The purpose of this work was to investigate the use of a commercial cadmium-telluride detector as an absolute thermal neutron measurement device on a proton therapy unit. Experimental measurements were performed on water phantoms using a 25 mm(2), 1 mm thick uncollimated CdTe spectrometer. The ...
The second application was to evaluate the potential of intensity-modulated very-high energy electron therapy (VHEET) for dose conformation. For an active proton beam delivery system the required energy resolution to reasonably implement energy modulation was found to be a function of the incident ...
Treatment of early-stage uveal melanoma includes enucleation, brachytherapy, and proton beam therapy [4]. For metastatic uveal melanoma, therapies such as site-directed chemotherapy (i.e., intra-arterial liver chemotherapy), regional, metastasis-directed or even selective internal radiation therapy, che...
