Cerenkov optical emissions in particle radiotherapy

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We present simulations and measurements of Cerenkov optical radiation in electron and proton radiotherapy. Photographs of Cerenkov emission from electrons can predict the range to ±1.5mm, but underestimate superficial dose.
