MR imaging of proton beam‐induced oxygen depletion Open
Background Previous studies have shown that in‐beam magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used to visualize a proton beam during the irradiation of liquid‐filled phantoms. The beam energy‐ and current‐dependent local image contrast obser…

MRI magnitude signal-based proton beam visualisation in water phantoms reflects composite effects of beam-induced buoyant convection and radiation chemistry Open
Objective . Local magnetic resonance (MR) signal loss was previously observed during proton beam irradiation of free-floating water phantoms at ambient temperature using a research prototype in-beam magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner…

Investigation of contrast mechanisms for MRI phase signal‐based proton beam visualization in water phantoms Open
Purpose The low sensitivity and limitation to water phantoms of convection‐dependent MRI magnitude signal‐based proton beam visualization hinder its in vivo applicability in MR‐integrated proton beam therapy. The purpose of the present stu…

The main advantage proton beams offer over photon beams in radiation therapy of cancer patients is the dose maximum at their finite range, yielding a reduction in the dose deposited in healthy tissues surrounding the tumor. Since no direct…
