Dr Bart Vorselaars from the School of Engineering and Physical Sciences, University of Lincoln, gave an invited talk Proton imaging for cancer treatment using a high proton flux: deaveraging calorimetry during the Medical Physics in the East Midlands event at the University of Nottingham on the 12th of September 2025. The event was organised by the IOP East Midlands Branch and the IOP Medical Physics Group. He presented the results of his article and patent with the OPTIma consortium.

Dr Bart Vorselaars from the School of Mathematics and Physics and Prof Nigel Allinson from the School of Computer Science of the University of Lincoln have published their joint open access article OPTIma: simplifying calorimetry for proton computed tomography in high proton flux environments, and their patent Apparatus for determining energy of hadron particles, together with the OPTIma consortium. The results have also been presented at the Ion Imaging 2023 workshop in London. This fruitful collaboration started from the College of Science Research Showcase 2022 speed networking event.
