The Influence of Motion on the Delivery Accuracy When Comparing Actively Scanned Carbon Ions versus Protons at a Synchrotron-Based Radiotherapy Facility

Motion amplitudes, in need of mitigation for moving targets irradiated with pulsed carbon ions and protons, were identified to guide the decision on treatment and motion mitigation strategy. Measurements with PinPoint ionisation chambers positioned in an anthropomorphic breathing phantom were acquir...
