Description
The unique properties of laser-driven proton and ion beams to transform particle beam therapy in automated, compact, high-throughput facilities will be discussed in the ‘Charged Particles for Cancer Therapy' workshop series.
The first workshop of the series, will:
• Review the state of the art in particle beam therapy together with the most advanced technological developments in the field;
• Discuss the unique flexibility in the time and spatial properties provided by laser-driven beams which, when combined with advanced diagnostics and automation, can revolutionise particle therapy; and
• Identify the key biological and clinical science that must be addressed to develop a new personalised cancer therapy with laser-driven ions.
The discussion at the workshop and the conclusions drawn will be documented in a 'White Paper' that will be published to provide the basis and underlying strategy for the future development of laser-driven charged particle beams for cancer therapy. This workshop will call on scientific, clinical and industry leaders in the field.
Future workshops in the series will address the key scientific and technological challenges that define the LhARA initiative. The following workshops are presently under development:
• Cylindrically-symmetric strong focusing of ion beams;
• Novel time-resolved and high-resolution imaging; and
• Biology, measurement, simulation and interpretation of ion beams.
