First Study of a HEXITEC Detector for Secondary Particle Characterisation during Proton Beam Therapy
Online proton range verification is a rapidly emerging field characterised by its ability to reduce the error margins during proton beam therapy, as it is patient-specific and in vivo. In particular, secondary prompt gamma detection is a promising tool to monitor the dose delivery. The present resea...
