- W2004352216 abstract "Purpose: The purpose of this analysis is to compare the secondary neutron lateral doses from scanning carbon and protonbeam therapies. Method and Materials: We simulated secondary neutron doses for out‐of‐field organs in an 11‐year old male patient. Scanned carbon and protonbeams were simulated separately using Monte Carlo techniques. We have used circular aperture field of 6 cm in diameter as a representative field. The tumor was assumed to be in the cranium. The range and modulation width for both carbon and protonbeams were set to 15 cm and 10 cm, respectively. Results: In carbon therapy, absorbed neutron doses to tonsils and pharynx close to the field‐edge were found to be 5×10−4 mSv/GyE and 4×10−4 mSv/GyE, respectively. Whereas, neutron equivalent doses to tonsils and pharynx were estimated to be 0.57 mSv/GyE and 0.55 mSv/GyE in scanned proton therapy, respectively. In heavy ion carbonbeamsneutrons produced inside the patient are emitted at small angles, predominantly in the forward direction, whereas in proton therapy,neutrons are emitted more isotropic. Therefore the absorbed neutron doses in carbon therapy lateral to the field edge are smaller compared to the corresponding proton fields. In forward direction though, the neutron doses from carbon ion therapy can be expected to be higher compared to proton therapy.Conclusions: Secondary neutron doses received by tonsils (out‐of‐field organ) in scanned carbon and proton therapies are found to be 5×10−4 mSv/GyE and 0.6 mSv/GyE, respectively. Organs located laterally away from the field‐edge receive much lower doses (thousand times smaller) in carbon therapy as compared to neutron doses in proton therapy. Whereas, on the distal side the neutron equivalent doses in scanned carbon therapy are a factor of 2 higher compared to similar scanned proton therapy fields." @default.
