Early Modulated Proton Therapy (EMPT) at FLASH Dose Rates: Proton Bursts Optimization, Stochastic Cooling, Spatial Intensity and Energy Modulations
2023-07-07
Abstract excerpt
FLASH radiotherapy requires extremely high dose rate (DR > 40Gy/s) hence challenges prevalent external-beam technologies. To achieve FLASH DRs, proton accelerators are potentially the best candidates due to high kinetic energies for individual protons. However, as the major drawback of prevalent IMPT, the lengthy pencil-beam modulation is the key difficulty against FLASH DR. To resolve this, we relinquished pencil...
