Increased accuracy of proton beam delivery provides additional benefits to the patients undergo the treatment.A prompt gamma imaging detector can provide additional information during the treatment,as the prompt gammas produced by the interactions between protons and human tissues are related to the range and profile of the beam in the patient.This paper makes a Monte Carlo feasibility study for a pixelated prompt gamma imaging detector which can not only measure the proton range but also merge the beam profile and 3D beam image inside the patient.FLUKA simulation result shows that this detector can reduce background noise and measure the range and beam profile by using of grated shielding material,vertical gammas selection and a 5MeV energy window. 展开更多

Our study investigated the role of oxygen in mediating the FLASH efect.This efect,which was frst reported in vitro in the 1950s and in vivo in the 1970s,recently gained prominence with a number of publications showing diferential sparing between normal tissues and tumors.Oxygen depletion(and subsequent induction of transient hypoxia)is the oldest and most prominent hypothesis to explain this efect.To better understand how the oxygen depletion hypothesis and oxygen enhancement ratio(OER)are relevant for interpreting FLASH benefts,an analytical model was proposed to estimate the sparing factor.The model incorporated factors such as OER,oxygen partial pressure(pO_(2)),loco-regional oxygen difusion/metabolism,total dose and dose rate.The sparing factor,was used to quantify the sparing of normal tissue(initially physoxic).The radiosensitivity parameters of two cell types(V79 Chinese hamster cells and T1 human kidney cells)were selected.Furthermore,the transient behavior of OER during fnite time intervals was modeled,for both without and with the presence of oxygen transport using a difusion model.For tissues with an oxygen consumption rate of 20mmHg/s and a distance of 60μm away from blood vessels,the sparing factor demonstrates an increase from 1.03/1.06(V79/T1)at 2.5Gy/s up to 1.28/1.72(V79/T1)at 100Gy/s(total dose:10Gy).For normal tissues of initial pO_(2) between 1.5 and 8mmHg,the beneft from pushing the dose rate above 100Gy/s is found to be marginal.Preliminary animal experiments have been conducted for validation.Overall,our study predicts that the dose rate associated with maximum normal tissue protection is between 50Gy/s and 100Gy/s.Other than the postulation of the hypoxic stem cell niches in normal tissues,we believe that a framework based upon the oxygen depletion hypothesis and OER is not able to efciently interpret diferential responses between normal and tumor tissue under FLASH irradiation. 展开更多
