Energy loss of carbon ion in lung tissue

Abstract

One of the most important developments in modern medicine is the use of carbon ion in the treatment of tumors, where the Carbon ion is adorable in the treatment because it deposits its energy deeply specific into the tissue therefore, in order to control the killing of cancer cells in tissues, should be provided an accurate description of the energy loss from carbon ion within lung tissue. The interactions of carbon ion with matter were studied and the mass stopping powers of carbon ion with lung tissue, were calculated by using Beth-Bloch equation and (SRIM, CasP, PASS) software. Also the range and liner energy transfer (LET) and the depth of penetration of carbon ion in lung tissue. As well as Dose and Dose equivalent for this ion were calculated by using Mat lab language with energy interval (0.025-1000) MeV.One of the most important developments in modern medicine is the use of carbon ion in the treatment of tumors, where the Carbon ion is adorable in the treatment because it deposits its energy deeply specific into the tissue therefore, in order to control the killing of cancer cells in tissues, should be provided an accurate description of the energy loss from carbon ion within lung tissue.
