بررسی پاسخ رده های سلولی مختلف به میدان تابشی آمیخته حاصل از پرتودهی با یون هلیوم

Introdution: A careful study of the physical and biological properties of helium ion radiation on the various cell lines is essential for the treatment planning. In this study, the biological response of several different cell lines has been investigated in 4He ions. Methods: Physical dose profiles and Linear Energy Transfer (LET) calculations were performed using the Monte Carlo Geant4 code. ...

Accounting for neutron exposure in the Japanese atomic bomb survivors.

The Japanese atomic bomb survivors that were directly exposed to both γ rays and neutrons have been followed by the Radiation Effects Research Foundation (RERF). The estimation of the γ-ray risks requires some adjustment for the greater biological effect of the neutrons per unit dose. Because the small neutron doses and the predominant γ-ray doses are highly correlated, the neutron relative bio...

Accuracy Evaluation of Isogray TPS Dose Calculations in Symmetric and Asymmetric Fields of the Elekta Compact Linear Accelerator

Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the most important methods of cancer treatment. Radiation therapy uses symmetric and asymmetric fields in which the radiation dose distribution is different. To calculate the dose distribution, computer treatment planning systems are used which must have acceptable calculations accuracy. The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy of the dose ...

Calculations of Linac Photon Dose Distributions in Homogeneous Phantom Using Spline

Introduction Relative dose computation is a necessary step in radiation treatment planning. Therefore, finding an approach that is both fast and accurate seems to be necessary. The purpose of this work was to investigate the feasibility of natural cubic spline to reconstruct dose maps for linear accelerator radiation treatment fields in comparison with those of the simulation. Materials and Met...

Evaluation of variable relative biological effectiveness and the creation of homogenous biological dose in the tumor region in helium ion radiation to the V79 cell line

In radiation therapy, ions heavier than proton have more biological advantages than a proton beam. Recently, ion helium has been considered due to high linear energy transfer (LET) to the medium and a higher relative biological effect (RBE). To design the spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) of biological dose for radiation with any type of ion, we need exact values of RBE, which is dependent to dose, ...
