Cancer radiotherapy is a locoregional treatment of cancer using physical processes. Its place has continued to be consolidated for more than a century with very rapid technological developments in recent years driven by the evolution of the possibilities of medical imaging and faster and more accurate dose calculations. It has continuously developed in close association with surgery and...
These lectures will cover an ntroduction to the physical and radiobiological characteristics of the different approaches and technological issues associated with their development.
The approach in developing new radiotherapy (RT) approaches is to succeed in increasing the therapeutic window for different types of cancer, either by sparing healthy tissues, or by being more effective on the...
Aspects expérimentaux, méthodologiques, instrumentaux et phénoménologiques de la radiobiologie

Aspects expérimentaux, méthodologiques, instrumentaux et phénoménologiques de la radiobiologie
Since the middle of the last century nuclear detectors have been used in medical application as well for diagnostic or treatment, especially in cancer patient course.
Beside the conventional X-rays imaging for diagnostic, scintillators are used for single photon (SPECT: Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography) or double photon (PET: Positron Emission Tomograpghy) 3D image reconstruction....

Radiotherapy uses ionising radiation to damage the DNA of tumour cells. According to international recommendations (ICRU), the doses delivered during treatment must not deviate by -5%/+7% from the doses prescribed by the radiation oncologist in order to maximize local control and limit complications. To achieve this, it is necessary to describe the properties of the radiation beams precisely....

Electrons and light ions have been accelerated following the interaction of
an intense laser pulse with a plasma for about 30 years. Nowadays, Laser
Plasma Accelerators (LPA) are versatile sources capable of producing energetic
electron and ion bunches with remarkable propreties. LPA benefited from
the constantly increasing repetition rates of high intensity lasers that increased
from a...
