An anthropomorphic breathing phantom of the thorax for testing new motion mitigation techniques for pencil beam scanning proton therapy

Perrin, R. L.; Zakova, M.; Peroni, M.; Bernatowicz, K.; Bikis, C.; Knopf, A. K.; et al. (2017)

Motion-induced range changes and incorrectly placed dose spots strongly affect the quality of pencil-beam-scanned (PBS) proton therapy, especially in thoracic tumour sites, where density changes are large. Thus motion-mitigation ...
Respiratory motion-management in stereotactic body radiation therapy for lung cancer - A dosimetric comparison in an anthropomorphic lung phantom (LuCa)

Ehrbar, S.; Perrin, R.; Peroni, M.; Bernatowicz, K.; Parkel, T.; Pytko, I.; et al. (2016)

Background and purpose: The objective of this study was to compare the latest respiratory motion management strategies, namely the internal-target-volume (ITV) concept, the mid-ventilation (MidV) principle, respiratory ...
