The FLASH effect designates normal tissue sparing at ultra-high dose rate (UHDR,> 40
Gy/s) compared to conventional dose rate (∼ 0.1 Gy/s) irradiation while maintaining tumour …

The development of innovative approaches that would reduce the sensitivity of healthy
tissues to irradiation while maintaining the efficacy of the treatment on the tumor is of crucial …

Abstract Very High Energy Electron (VHEE) beams are a promising alternative to
conventional radiotherapy due to their highly penetrating nature and their applicability as a …

This paper presents the first demonstration of deeply penetrating dose delivery using
focused very high energy electron (VHEE) beams using quadrupole magnets in Monte Carlo …

Abstract At the Photo Injector Test facility at DESY in Z euthen (PITZ), an R&D platform for
electron FLASH and very high energy electron radiation therapy and radiation biology is …

Different therapies are adopted for the treatment of deep seated tumours in combination or
as an alternative to surgical removal or chemotherapy: radiotherapy with photons (RT) …

Objective. Very high energy electrons (VHEE) in the range of 50–250 MeV are of interest for
treating deep-seated tumours with FLASH radiotherapy (RT). This approach offers …

Very-high-energy electron (VHEE) beams with energies greater than 100 MeV may be
promising candidates for FLASH radiotherapy due to their favorable dose distributions and …

Purpose Clinical translation of FLASH-radiotherapy (RT) to deep-seated tumours is still a
technological challenge. One proposed solution consists of using ultra-high dose rate …

The use of very high-energy electrons (VHEEs) with energies in the range of 100-250 MeV
has recently garnered significant attention for use in radiotherapy. VHEE beams manifest …
