Revision as of 16:01, 9 July 2025
To Do
MC Simulations
Dose Reconstruction
- Reconstructing UCLH 04-5/2024 QuADProBe Beam Test Dose Distributions - mainly SOBP and 3x3x7 cm^3 box field using TOPAS (via CVMFS on HEP Cluster) and FRED (locally for now, but eventually over Hypatia GPU cluster).
- Disagreement between depth dose curve for FRED and TOPAS (using default physics settings) - agreement in plateau but FRED has sharper and higher Bragg Peak
- Only an issue when there's an energy spread in the pencil beam (i.e. PDD's agree almost perfectly for a mono energetic beam with no spread) - likely to do with energy straggling?
- Investigating physics lists and in touch with Maestro o attempt to solve discrepancy (currently taking TOPAS as ground truth)
QuARC & QuADProBe Geant4 Simulations
- Get Saads QuARC G4 simulation working
- Look at QuADProBe simulation from Raffy.
Fibres
- Consider potential ways of calibrating fibre to PD coupling.
- Using Geant4 sim?
- Scanning diode or uniform light source?
- Hassle Simon about Hamamatsu PD arrays !!!
- Prepare slides about DAQ systems for existing fibre / fibre array detectors
Conference Abstracts
- PPRIG - submitted
Papers
- Submit QuADProBe PSQA paper for Frontiers in Oncology special edition: Technology Developments in Proton Therapy by end of July
Completed
MC Simulations
Dose Reconstruction
- TOPAS Simulations fully working on cluster and used to reconstruct 3D dose distributions from QuADProBe UCLH Beam Test 2024 for frontiers paper.
- FRED-MC working on old MacBook Air (2020) intel processor and matches TOPAS simulations. Doesn't run on new MacBook Pro as not compatible with apple silicon.
QuARC & QuADProBe Geant4 Simulations
- Saads QuARC G4 simulation working and added scoring onto left and right sides
Fibres
- Had two meetings with Blake Leverington and Julian Horne from Heidelberg on replicating/adapting the design of the frontend readout system of their fibre array monitor.
- Have so far received assembly drawings, technical description booklet, schematics and slides.
- Hamamatsu making S17285-128G digital readout photodiode arrays with samples expected to be ready in September 2025.
Conference Abstracts
Conference Talks
- Talk given at PPRIG 03/05
Papers
- First draft of QuADProBe PSQA paper for Frontiers in Oncology special edition: Technology Developments in Proton Therapy completed
