A novel, low-cost 3D surface scanning system was developed using a custom modification of the laser-profiling technique. Proof of concept was demonstrated through 3D simulation in Blender 3D software. A real-world prototype was then implemented using a consum...
Conventional methods for testing proton pencil-beams require multiple quality assurance tools that lack efficiency and spatiotemporal resolutions. Here, we used our efficient ultra-high-resolution scintillation imaging system to verify that two gantry-mounted...
To measure the neutron-ambient-dose-equivalent (H*(10)) and assess the fetal dose due to secondary neutrons in a gantry-mounted synchrocyclotron proton therapy system when an intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) brain treatment is delivered with the dyna...
