Secondary neutron dose measurement for proton eye treatment using an eye snout with a borated neutron absorber

BACKGROUND: We measured and assessed ways to reduce the secondary neutron dose from a system for proton eye treatment. METHODS: Proton beams of 60.30 MeV were delivered through an eye-treatment snout in passive scattering mode. Allyl diglycol carbonate (CR-39) etch detectors were used to measure the...
