@drdavidpalma@PBlanchardMD@SJFrankMD@EmmaHall71 A verification scan was required at week 3 in the TORPEDO trial, whereas it seems to be optional for the MDACC trial. I don't see any replanning statistics reported for either.
@ProtonStorey They are reporting a relative risk increase with as low as 1-5 mGy exposure. This seems hard to distinguish when background radiation exposure varies across the country from just over 1 to almost 10 mSv/year.
Here we demonstrate and verify the use of machine log files and Monte Carlo simulation for accurate 3D calculations of the delivered Bragg peak dose and dose rate distribution for proton FLASH. @OliaeiAzar@michelemkim@ibaworldwide@PennRadOnc

It is not too early to start thinking about the #RadRes2025 Meeting in beautiful #PuertoRico Sept 21-24, 2025 🌞🌴🍹🏖️
Abstract & Submission opens in 2⃣ weeks‼️
The Program is shaping up to be FANTASTIC (prelim program link below ⬇️)🔥🔥🔥
📢 Thrilled to announce we will be starting our global #medphys training program in Ghana this summer through funding from @PennGlobal! Thanks to an amazing collaborative team, students will spend 5 weeks training in Accra and Kumasi. @DrS_Avery @UPennCGH@haspee1@bcighana
