Abstract
A phantom device for in-vitro validation of radiation procedures under motion influence in consideration of an effective biological dose includes a phantom having a first biological detector with a first biological sample. The first biological sample includes a plurality of culturing and irradiation elements. Each of the culturing and irradiation elements are provided with a respective biological sub-sample so that the first biological detector is configured as a spatially resolving biological detector. A first motion device is configured to move the first biological detector so as to simulate a motion of a target volume.

45. A method for experimental in-vitro validation of radiation procedures under motion influence in consideration of a relative biological effectiveness-weighted dose using a phantom device, the method comprising:
-
positioning a phantom temporarily at a patient radiation site, the phantom having a first biological detector with a first biological sample including a plurality of culturing and irradiation elements, each of the elements being provided with a respective biological cell culture so that the first biological detector is configured as a spatially resolving biological detector; irradiating the phantom at the patient radiation site; moving the first biological detector during the irradiating so as to simulate a motion of a target volume; determining, after the irradiating, a respective survival rate for each of the biological cell cultures; and verifying, based on the survival rates, an algorithm for calculating an effective biological dose of a particle-therapy accelerator. - View Dependent Claims (46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53)
