Heavy Ion Radiotherapy: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow*
At EO Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), clinical trials were conducted (1975-1992) for treating human cancer using heavy ion beams, in which about 700 patients were treated with helium-ion and about 300 patients with neon-ion beams. Clinical trials at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany used carbon-ion beams to treat about 250 patients (1997-2005). ...
متن کاملHeavy Ion Results from ATLAS
These proceedings provide an overview of the new results obtained with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, which were presented in the Quark Matter 2017 conference. These results were covered by twelve parallel talks, one flash talk and eleven posters. These proceedings group these results into five areas: initial state, jet quenching, quarkonium production, longitudinal flow dynamics, and collectiv...
متن کاملRecent Progress of Heavy-ion Cancer Radiotherapy with Nirs-himac
The carbon-ion radiotherapy (RT) with HIMAC has been conducted since 1994, and the accumulated number of patients treated exceeded 7,500 in July 2013. On the basis of the HIMAC experience, NIRS developed a compact carbon-ion RT facility in order to boost the carbon-ion RT in Japan, and a pilot facility of this work was constructed and conducted at the Gunma University. Toward the further develo...
متن کاملExamination of fragment dose contribution in heavy ion radiotherapy.
Heavy-ion radiotherapy is an efficient method for the treatment of deep-seated tumors, because the stopping of ions in a tissue delivers the maximal absorbed dose to the tumor-affected areas with minimal damage to the healthy tissues. However, heavy ions can undergo nuclear reactions, giving products with lower Z-values and hence a longer range in the tissue. This causes a dose increase beyond ...
متن کاملRecent Results from Heavy Ion Collisions
The purpose of the current heavy ion programs at CERN (Switzerland) and Brookhaven National Laboratory (USA) is to probe strongly interacting matter under extreme conditions, i.e. at high densities and temperatures. The central subject of these studies is the transition from the quark-gluon plasma to hadronic matter. In the early phases of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions, when a hot and...
