To establish a benchmarked radiochemical framework under conventional irradiation and present preliminary results on extending radiochemical simulations to ultra-high-dose-rate (UHDR) beams. FLASH radiotherapy employs UHDR radiation beams that challenge the a...
Robust and quantitative treatment planning remains a critical barrier to reproducible preclinical FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) research. We developed and validated a Monte Carlo–based treatment planning interface (TPI) for electron FLASH beams, enabling accu...
To demonstrate, for the first time in a clinical setting, the accuracy of a novel robust, dose-rate independent and self-consistent calorimeter system to accurately determine absorbed dose to water in UHDR beams from a Mobetron irradiator.
