Secondary radiation emission induced by nuclear reactions is correlated to the path of ions
in matter. Therefore, such penetrating radiation can be used for in vivo control of …

Compton imaging exploits inelastic scattering, known as Compton scattering, using a
Compton camera consisting of a scatterer detector in the front layer and an absorber …

We present a full-scale clinical prototype system for in vivo range verification of proton pencil-
beams using the prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy method. The detection system consists of …

We tested the ability of a single Compton camera (CC) to produce 3-dimensional (3D)
images of prompt gammas (PGs) emitted during the irradiation of a tissue-equivalent plastic …

In-vivo range verification has been a hot topic in particle therapy for about two decades. In
spite of vast efforts made by research groups all over the world, clinical devices and …

The Compton camera can simultaneously acquire images of multiple isotopes injected in a
body; therefore, it has the potential to introduce a new subfield in the field of biomedical …

We studied the application of a deep, fully connected Neural Network (NN) to process
prompt gamma (PG) data measured by a Compton camera (CC) during the delivery of …

For radiological diagnosis and radionuclide therapy, X-ray and gamma-ray imaging
technologies are essential. Single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) and positron …

Technologies enabling in vivo range verification during proton therapy are actively sought
as a means to reduce the clinical safety margins currently adopted to avoid tumor …

Compton cameras are gamma-ray imaging systems which have been proposed for a wide
variety of applications such as medical imaging, nuclear decommissioning or homeland …
