Title First Images of a Three-layer compton Telescope prototype for Treatment Monitoring in hadron Therapy Type Journal Article
Year 2016 Publication Frontiers in Oncology Abbreviated Journal Front. Oncol.
Volume 6 Issue Pages 14 - 6pp
Keywords Compton camera; Compton telescope; hadron therapy; treatment monitoring; LaBr3
Abstract A Compton telescope for dose monitoring in hadron therapy is under development at IFIC. The system consists of three layers of LaBr3 crystals coupled to silicon photomulti-plier arrays. Na-22 sources have been successfully imaged reconstructing the data with an ML-EM code. Calibration and temperature stabilization are necessary for the prototype operation at low coincidence rates. A spatial resolution of 7.8 mm FWHM has been obtained in the first imaging tests.
