This project aims to build a Heavy Ion Therapy Research and Treatment Centre in Australia. Understanding how ions interact with matter and their radiobiological effectiveness (RBE) is important. The project will introduce an Australian detector technology platform to research ion interaction physics and their RBE. It will develop radiation detectors for ion measurement with a wide energy range, including a practical RBE quality assurance tool with submillimetre spatial resolution. The proposed Australian radiation detection technology is expected to improve understanding of the scientific mechanisms underpinning the radiobiological effectiveness of heavy ion radiation.

该项目旨在澳大利亚建立一个重离子治疗研究和治疗中心。了解离子如何与物质相互作用及其放射生物学效应(RBE)是重要的。该项目将引入澳大利亚探测器技术平台来研究离子相互作用物理及其RBE。它将开发用于宽能量范围离子测量的辐射探测器，包括具有亚毫米空间分辨率的实用RBE质量保证工具。澳大利亚拟议的辐射探测技术预计将提高对支撑重离子辐射放射生物学效力的科学机制的理解。
