内容記述 | Facilities for heavy ion therapies are steadily increasing in number worldwide. One of the advantages of heavy ions is their high relative biological effect (RBE). In a model used at NIRS (National Institute of Radiological Sciences), linear energy transfer (LET) spectra are required to estimate biological dose (physical dose × RBE). The CR-39 plastic charged-particle detector (CR-39) is suitable for measurement of LET. For the present study, done at the Gunma University Heavy Ion Medical Center (GHMC), we measured LET spectra at 11 depths in spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) irradiation by a 12C beam of 380 MeV/u. The lower threshold of the CR-39 to measure LET was about 5 keV μm−1 due to poor sensitivity for low LET. Then we calculated biological dose and survival fraction distributions and compared them with treatment planning results at GHMC. We used Monte Carlo simulation (Geant4) to calculate LET spectra. The simulation results were in good agreement with the experimental spectra. Moreover, the biological dose and survival fraction distributions estimated from the CR-39 reproduced the treatment planning. The CR-39 is suitable for estimating biological dose in carbon ion therapy. | |||||
