REAL-TIME TRACKING OF THE BRAGG PEAK DURING PROTON THERAPY VIA 3D PROTOACOUSTIC IMAGING IN A CLINICAL SCENARIO
Authors: Siqi Wang, Gilberto Gonzalez, Leshan Sun, Yifei Xu, Prabodh Pandey, Yong Chen & Shawn (Liangzhong) Xiang ABSTRACT Proton radiotherapy favored over X-ray photon therapy due to its reduced radiation exposure to surrounding healthy tissues, is highly dependent on the accurate positioning of the Bragg peak. Existing methods like PET and prompt gamma imaging to […]
