Experimental Platform for Ultra-high Dose Rate FLASH Irradiation of Small Animals Using a Clinical Linear Accelerator.
PURPOSE A key factor limiting the effectiveness of radiation therapy is normal tissue toxicity, and recent preclinical data have shown that ultra-high dose rate irradiation (>50 Gy/s, "FLASH") potentially mitigates this effect. However, research in this field has been strongly limited by the availability of FLASH irradiators suitable for small animal experiments. We present a simple methodologi...
متن کاملHigh dose-rate endobronchial irradiation in malignant airway obstruction.
We evaluated the effectiveness of high dose rate (HDR) endobronchial irradiation for palliation of malignant airway obstruction. Between May 1989 and February 1992, 39 patients were treated in our department. Thirty-two patients (82 percent) had primary lung neoplasms and 7 (18 percent) had metastatic disease. Thirty-three patients (85 percent) had prior external irradiation (either alone or in...
متن کاملInduction of radioresistant nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE-2R by repeated high-dose X-ray irradiation
Background: All To enhance the curative effect of radiotherapy, we established a radio-resistant cell line, CNE-2R from CNE-2, a radio-sensitive type of CNE, through repeated irradiation. The developed cell line provides a basis for further studies on the radio-resistance of CNE and the molecular mechanism of radiotherapy sensitization drugs. Materials and Methods: The CNE-2 cell line was selec...
متن کاملCalibration of iridium-192 source by ionization chamber for high dose rate brachytherapy
Background: The effectiveness and safety of brachytherapy treatment is mainly concerned with the calibration of sources and their traceability to internationally accepted Standards. Secondary Standard Dosimetry Laboratory (SSDL) does not offer calibration of ionization chambers with gamma-ray spectrum of high dose rate source 192Ir . This work has been carried out to calibrate the high dose rat...
متن کاملDose modification factors for 192Ir high‐dose‐rate irradiation using Monte Carlo simulations
A recently introduced brachytherapy system for partial breast irradiation, MammoSite, consists of a balloon applicator filled with contrast solution and a catheter for insertion of an 192Ir high-dose-rate (HDR) source. In using this system, the treatment dose is typically prescribed to be delivered 1 cm from the balloon's surface. Most treatment-planning systems currently in use for brachythera...
