The Backscatter Gating method for time, energy, and position resolution characterization of long form factor organic scintillators
Ratliff, Hunter Nathaniel; Kögler, Toni; Pausch, Guntram; Setterdahl, Lena Marie; Skjerdal, Kyrre; Turko, Joseph A.; Meric, Ilker (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This work details a Compton-scattering-based methodology, referred to as Backscatter Gating (BSG), for characterizing the time, energy, and position resolutions of long form factor organic scintillators using a single, ... -
A hybrid multi-particle approach to range assessment-based treatment verification in particle therapy
Meric, Ilker; Alagoz, Enver; Hysing, Liv Bolstad; Kögler, Toni; Lathouwers, Danny; Lionheart, William R. B.; Mattingly, John; Obhodas, Jasmina; Pausch, Guntram; Pettersen, Helge Egil Seime; Ratliff, Hunter Nathaniel; Rovituso, Marta; Schellhammer, Sonja M.; Setterdahl, Lena Marie; Skjerdal, Kyrre; Sterpin, Edmond; Sudac, Davorin; Turko, Joseph A.; Ytre-Hauge, Kristian Smeland (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Particle therapy (PT) used for cancer treatment can spare healthy tissue and reduce treatment toxicity. However, full exploitation of the dosimetric advantages of PT is not yet possible due to range uncertainties, warranting ... -
Hybrid treatment verification based on prompt gamma rays and fast neutrons: Multivariate modelling for proton range determination
Schellhammer, Sonja M.; Meric, Ilker; Löck, Steffen; Kögler, Toni (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Robust and fast in vivo treatment verification is expected to increase the clinical efficacy of proton therapy. The combined detection of prompt gamma rays and neutrons has recently been proposed for this purpose and shown ... -
Prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy in conjunction with the Monte Carlo Library Least Squares approach: applications to range verification in proton therapy
Skjerdal, Kyrre; Kögler, Toni; Lionheart, William; Ytre-Hauge, Kristian Smeland; Meric, Ilker (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Prompt Gamma-ray Spectroscopy (PGS) in conjunction with the Monte Carlo Library Least Squares (MCLLS) approach was investigated for the purposes of range monitoring in proton therapy through Monte Carlo simulations. Prompt ...
