Lehrinhalte: The Lecture covers the physical and biological basics of radiation<br />biophysics and introduces modern experimental techniques in radiation<br />biology. Special emphasis is put on the research of the interaction of<br />ions with biological systems. Further, all different steps necessary to<br />perform heavy ion therapy will be covered in detail. Following topics will<br />be covered:<br />Electromagnetic Radiation, Interaction particle-matter, Introduction<br />Biology, Radiation effects of sparsely ionizing radiation (e.g. X-ray):<br />DNA, chromosomes, Track structure of heavy ions, Low-LET radiation<br />biology: cellular effects, High LET (ions): radiation biology, Physical<br />and Biological Dosimetry, Low dose effects, Ion beam therapy, Models for<br />therapy, Treatment of Moving Targets<br />More information:<br />http://www.gsi.de/forschung/bio/TUD_lectures2007_e.html
