| dc.description.abstract | 質子治療為放射治療方式之一，與一般光子治療相比它具有更精確劑量投擲的特性。
質子治療在劑量分布末端急速下降提供緊致外廓的同時，卻對射程不準度造成相對敏

| dc.description.abstract | Proton therapy is a treatment modality which can deliver dose precisely to cancer tumor in comparison to photon therapy. However, the sharp distal fall-off in proton therapy provides compact comformity, yet it is sensitive to uncertainty in dose delivery during treatment. The uncertainty can be risky for sensitive organ close to the tumor. Therefore, it necessary to monitor and verify the range of proton during treatment. In-beam range monitoring can be achieved by detecting secondary gamma emitted from proton interaction with human body. This study is performed using GEANT4 monte carlo toolkit version 9.4.p02. The geometry involves a PMMA slab as the target and two detectors made of LYSO placed on either side of PMMA target. Monoenergetic proton beam with energy 130 MeV is used as radiation sources in this study. Results of simulation are compared with experiment conducted at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan under the same conditions as simulation. The energies of the gammas detected in simulation were in the range of 0 – 10 MeV. In this simulation study, major peaks from 511 KeV gamma, or positron annihilation gamma (PAG), and other peaks correspond to the characteristic energy of prompt gamma (PG) were observed. Isotopes generated in PMMA target are used as a reference for estimating the numbers of PAG or PG created. In experiment measurement, two types of gamma spectra are obtained from two different durations depending on proton irradiation is ON (Beam-ON) or OFF (Beam-OFF). Simulation result shows that longitudinal distribution of both PG sources and positron emitter sources are adequate to verify the range of proton treatment by a difference of 1 mm or 8 mm from Bragg peak respectively. The comparison of Beam-OFF data and simulation data of positron emitter shows that they are in good agreement in longitudinal distribution. Ratio of positron emitters in the measured data is 1.42 : 1 for 15O : 11C positron emitters, which is the same as simulation. At the end we conclude that GEANT4 monte carlo simulation toolkit is a powerful and suitable tool for simulation of nuclear interactions and gamma production from proton interaction in tissues. | en_US |
