| Title | Protontherapy Versus Carbon Ion Therapy : Advantages, Disadvantages and Similarities |
| Author(s) | Nunes, Marcos d?????vila |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2015. |
| Description | XX, 110 p. 71 illus., 16 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book presents a comparison analysis of two cancer treatment therapies: carbon ion therapy and protontherapy. It is divided in 5 sections. The first ones gives the reader a brief history of Radiotherapy and types of radiation. In the second section, the techniques and equipments, including new ones in development such as Cyclinac , Laser and DWA, are described. The third section describes biophysical (such as stopping power and LET) and biological (such as RBE and OER) properties, the fundamental experiments and clinical area. The fourth section presents models and the fifth section compares both techniques, showing advantages and disadvantages of each, and their similarities |

| Title | Hadron Therapy Physics and Simulations |
| Author(s) | Nunes, Marcos d?????vila |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer New York, 2014. |
| Description | XIV, 95 p. 58 illus., 52 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This brief provides an in-depth overview of the physics of hadron therapy, ranging from the history to the latest contributions to the subject. It covers the mechanisms of protons and carbon ions at the molecular level (DNA breaks and proteins 53BP1 and RPA), the physics and mathematics of accelerators (Cyclotron and Synchrotron), microdosimetry measurements (with new results so far achieved), and Monte Carlo simulations in hadron therapy using FLUKA (CERN) and MCHIT (FIAS) software. The text also includes information about proton therapy centers and carbon ion centers (PTCOG), as well as a comparison and discussion of both techniques in treatment planning and radiation monitoring. This brief is suitable for newcomers to medical physics as well as seasoned specialists in radiation oncology |
