First in-beam tests on simultaneous PET and Compton imaging aimed at quasi-real-time range verification in hadron therapy
Hadron therapy with protons has advantages with respect to conventional radiotherapy because of the maximization of the dose at the Bragg peak. As a drawback, and because of different systematic uncertainty sources, a quasi-real time monitoring for the proton range verification is required to reduce...
