In vivo proton dosimetry using a MOSFET detector in an anthropomorphic phantom with tissue inhomogeneity
When in vivo proton dosimetry is performed with a metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) detector, the response of the detector depends strongly on the linear energy transfer. The present study reports a practical method to correct the MOSFET response for linear energy transfer dependence by using a simplified Monte Carlo dose calculation method (SMC). A depth-output curve f...
متن کاملA Simulation Study on Patient Setup Errors in External Beam Radiotherapy Using an Anthropomorphic 4D Phantom
Introduction Patient set-up optimization is required in radiotherapy to fill the accuracy gap between personalized treatment planning and uncertainties in the irradiation set-up. In this study, we aimed to develop a new method based on neural network to estimate patient geometrical setup using 4-dimensional (4D) XCAT anthropomorphic phantom. Materials and Methods To access 4D modeling of motion...
متن کاملIn Vivo Dosimetry of an Anthropomorphic Phantom Using the RADPOS for Proton Beam Therapy
The radiation positioning system (RADPOS) combines an electromagnetic positioning sensor with metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) dosimetry, enabling simultaneous online measurement of dose and spatial position. Evaluation points can be determined with the RADPOS. The accuracy of in-vivo proton dosimetry was evaluated using the RADPOS and an anthropomorphic head and neck ...
متن کاملSmall field electron beam dosimetry using MOSFET detector
The dosimetry of very small electron fields can be challenging due to relative shifts in percent depth-dose curves, including the location of dmax, and lack of lateral electronic equilibrium in an ion chamber when placed in the beam. Conventionally a small parallel plate chamber or film is utilized to perform small field electron beam dosimetry. Since modern radiotherapy departments are becomin...
متن کاملRapid Detection of Inhomogeneity in a Tissue Phantom
Detecting inhomogeneity in a turbid tissue using optical tomography technique as a non-invasive tool is of paramount importance in imaging and diagnosis of diseases and tissue abnormalities. In our approach, an ultrafast laser is used as the detecting source and the backscattered light signals are collected around the boundary of the target. We have developed a Monte Carlo program used to simul...
