DESCRIPTION:Hadron therapy is a cancer treatment technique based on the ir
 radiation of tumours with protons or light ions. During treatment\, beam p
 articles excite nuclei in the patient and prompt gammas are emitted from n
 uclear de-excitation. Since the prompt gamma production distribution is cl
 osely correlated to the absorbed dose\, their detection can be used for tr
 eatment delivery assessment. At IFIC\, a prototype of a Compton telescope 
 for this purpose is under development. I will introduce hadron therapy\, d
 iscuss the applicability of Compton imaging systems for dose monitoring in
  this technique and talk about the results obtained so far with our protot
 ype\, our ongoing work and further steps.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/eve
