We calculated the conversion coefficients from fluence to organ dose equivalents for neutrons, protons and heavy ions up to Z=28 (Ni) and E=100 GeV/nucleon for the isotropic irradiation geometry, using the PHITS code and the ICRP/ICRU adult reference computational phantoms, developed under the supervision of ICRP Task Group on Dose Calculations (DOCAL).

We have established a new method for simultaneously estimating biological doses and dose equivalents inside the whole human body, using the particle and heavy ion transport code system PHITS. The detailed procedures for establishing this dose-estimation method were described elsewhere. At the meeting, we will thus focus on its applicability to the treatment planning of charged-particle therapy, showing the calculated results of biological doses and dose equivalents in several tissues for various irradiation conditions by changing the incident particle charges and energies, the structure of upstream apparatuses, and tumor locations.
