内容記述 | In carbon ion therapy, visualization of the range of incident particles in a patient body is important for treatment verification. In-beam positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in ion therapy is one of the method for verification of treatment due to the high quality of PET images. We have already shown the feasibility of radioactive beams of 15 O and 11 C using in-beam PET imaging using our OpenPET system. Recently, we have developed a whole gamma imaging (WGI) system which can work as PET, single gamma-ray and triple gamma-ray imaging simultaneously. The WGI system has high potential to detect location of 10 C, which emits positron with a simultaneous gamma-ray of 718 keV, and activity of other produced positron emitting nuclei within patient body during ion therapy. In this work, we focus on investigation of performance of WGI system for 10 C irradiation. First, the performance of scatterer detector of the WGI system regarding the radiation hardness was studied for 10 C irradiation, then the performance of WGI was studied by simulation using the Geant4 code. The scatterer detector consisted of a segmented GAGG crystal and a multi-pixel photon counter (MPPC) and its performance was studied as a PMMA phantom was irradiated with 5 and 400 spills of 10 C with energy of 350 MeV/u. No damage to the MPPC (scatterer detector) was observed even though after irradiation of 400 spills (~1.9×10 5 particle per spill). Sensitivity values of WGI system by simulation of a 10 C nuclide at the center of field of view (FOV) for PET mode imaging, single gamma-ray of 718 keV imaging and triple gamma-ray imaging were 7.85%, 0.28% and 0.012% respectively. The performance of WGI system is going to be evaluated for 10 C irradiation in the near future. | |||||
