A new model for Spread Out Bragg Peak in proton therapy of uveal melanoma
In this research, in order to improve our calculations in treatment planning for proton radiotherapy of ocular melanoma, we improved our human eye phantom planning system in GEANT4 toolkit. Different analytical models have investigated the creating of Spread Out Bragg Peak (SOBP) in the tumor area. Bortfeld’s model is one of the most important analytical methods. Using convolution method, a new...
متن کاملTissue inhomogeneity in proton therapy and investigation of its effects on BRAGG peak by using MCNPX code
Background: Hadron therapy for malignant tumor is becoming increasingly popular. There are many factors which effect on implementation of a proper treatment planning. The purpose of this work is to investigate the inhomogeneity effects as affecting factor on proton range, Full width at half maximum (FWHM) and 20% position of penumbra (P20) by MCNPX code. Materials and Methods: An inhomogeneous ...
متن کاملCoulomb nanoradiator-mediated, site-specific thrombolytic proton treatment with a traversing pristine Bragg peak
Traversing proton beam-irradiated, mid/high-Z nanoparticles produce site-specific enhancement of X-ray photon-electron emission via the Coulomb nanoradiator (CNR) effect, resulting in a nano- to micro-scale therapeutic effect at the nanoparticle-uptake target site. Here, we demonstrate the uptake of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) and nanoradiator-mediated, site-specific thrombolysis without da...
متن کاملMonte Carlo calculations of dose distribution for the treatment of gastric cancer with proton therapy
Proton therapy is a common form of external radiation therapy based on the manipulation of Bragg peak of this beam, it can treat the tumor by delivering high levels of doses to it, while protecting surrounding healthy tissues against radiation. In this work, the dose distribution of proton and secondary particles such as neutrons, photons, electrons and positrons in gastric cancer proton therap...
