Objective:: To investigate whether the Mevion S250i with HYPERSCAN clinical proton system could be used for pre-clinical research with millimetric beams.
Methods:: The nozzle of the proton beam line, consisting of an energy modulation system (EMS) and an adaptive aperture (AA), was modelled with the TOPAS Monte Carlo Simulation Toolkit. With the EMS, the 230 MeV beam nominal range can be decreased in multiples of 2.
