Proton beams (62 Mev) are used by the Laboratori Nazionali del Sud of the Italian Institute of Nuclear Physics to treat eye melanoma tumours at the therapeutic facility called CATANA. A cylindrical slim tissue-equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) of 2.7 mm external diameter has been used to compare the radiation quality of two spread-out Bragg peaks (SOBP) at the CATANA proton beam.
意大利国家核物理研究所的南国家实验室使用质子束(62兆电子伏特)在名为卡塔纳的治疗设施中治疗眼部黑色素瘤肿瘤。一个外径为2.7毫米的圆柱形细长组织等效正比计数器(TEPC)被用于比较卡塔纳质子束处两个扩展布拉格峰(SOBP)的辐射质量。
