Models for the relative biological effectiveness in proton therapy: on the impact of cell-irradiation design
(Master thesis, 2020-07-07)Background: The use of protons was first suggested for use in treating cancer in 1946, due to its preferable dose distribution. In clinical practice, a constant Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 is used in ... -
Monte Carlo simulations of neutron based in-vivo range verification in proton therapy – optimization of detector dimensions and positioning
(Master thesis, 2019-12-06)Proton therapy is a cancer treatment modality expanding in clinical applications around the world. Due to the finite range of a monoenergetic proton beam, it is possible to spare more of the healthy tissue surrounding the ...
