Development and characterization of phantoms to investigate the Flash effect with Drosophila melanogaster at an ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy linac

Background and purpose: Ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) radiotherapy may widen the therapeutic window thanks to the Flash effect. Experimental linear accelerators have been converted to UHDR to collect pre-clinical evidence. Increasing the accessibility, throughput and investigating additional biologica...
