Proton Computed Tomography Applied to Small Biomedical Samples AKIRA ITO AND HIROKO KOYAMA-ITO

Cyclotron Lab., Institute of/Vledical Science, Tokyo Univ., 4-6-1 h'linato-ku, Tokyo, 108 JAPAN ABSTRACT The computed tomography (CT) using the high-energy proton beam has the potential advantage of superior density resolution in the soft tissue analysis as compared to the conventional X-ray CT. We have developed the "first generation" type proton CT system using a 25-MeV proton beam to study the density distributions in small biomedical samples (
