About
Narayan Sahoo is a leading figure in proton therapy physics, with a particular focus on advancing FLASH radiotherapy—an ultra-fast radiation delivery method that spares healthy tissue while destroying tumors. His recent work tackles a critical translational challenge: scaling FLASH proton beams from small experimental fields to clinically relevant treatment volumes. In his 2024 study, Sahoo and his team developed an innovative strategy using a robotic motion platform to mimic large spot-scanning fields, effectively expanding the reach of a synchrotron-based horizontal proton beamline (87.2 MeV) for preclinical FLASH studies. This breakthrough enables more realistic large-animal and human-scale experiments, bridging the gap between lab discovery and clinical application. With over 4 citations already, this paper is gaining rapid traction in the FLASH community. Sahoo’s broader contributions include pioneering work in proton beam commissioning, dosimetry, and treatment planning, making him a vital contributor to the next generation of cancer radiotherapy. His research is essential reading for students and scientists interested in FLASH physics, beam delivery innovation, and the engineering of next-generation proton therapy systems.
