Ultrahigh dose-rate radiotherapy (RT), or'FLASH'therapy, has gained significant momentum
following various in vivo studies published since 2014 which have demonstrated a reduction …

We review the current status of proton FLASH experimental systems, including preclinical
physical and biological results. Technological limitations on preclinical investigation of …

Purpose To provide ultrahigh dose rate (UHDR) pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton
dosimetry comparison of clinically used plane‐parallel ion chambers, PTW (Physikalisch …

Proton therapy is an expanding radiotherapy modality in the United States and worldwide.
With the number of proton therapy centers treating patients increasing, so does the need for …

Introduction Ultra‐high dose rate (FLASH) radiotherapy has become a popular research
topic with the potential to reduce normal tissue toxicities without losing the benefit of tumor …

Objective. Irradiation with ultra-high dose rates (> 40 Gy s− 1), also known as FLASH
irradiation, has the potential to shift the paradigm of radiation therapy because of its reduced …

This article is intended to present the different types of particle and radiation detectors
available for applications in particle therapy. Several types of detectors and sensors exist for …

FLASH irradiations use dose-rates orders of magnitude higher than commonly used in
patient treatments. Such irradiations have shown interesting normal tissue sparing in cell …

Objective. Experimental determination of beam quality k Q factors for two types of Farmer
ionization chambers, NE2571 and IBA FC65-G, in a scanned proton beam for three nominal …

Shoot-through proton FLASH radiation therapy has been proposed where the highest
energy is extracted from a cyclotron to maximize the dose rate (DR). Although our proton …
