Motivation
• Proton imaging: Proposed already in 1960s by Cormack
Registering proton position and direction before and after object
and residual energy/range after object
Relative stopping power to water (RSP) determination at low imaging dose
Renewed interest with the spread of particle therapy facilities
Potential clinical use: treatment planning, positioning, plan adaptation/replanning
