Claus E. Andersen

Claus E. Andersen is a Senior Researcher in the Department of Health Technology, specializing in Medical Dosimetry at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His work focuses on radiation dosimetry, radiotherapy techniques, and advanced applications such as FLASH therapy and proton beam treatments. Key areas of research include the biological effects of radiation, dosimetry in magnetic resonance-linear accelerators (MR-Linacs), and standardization of radiation measurements through collaborations with organizations like the IAEA. Andersen’s contributions span experimental validation of treatment modalities, optimization of dosimetry systems, and reducing normal tissue toxicity in cancer therapies.

His research interests are centered on improving radiation therapy precision, particularly through innovations in dosimetry for complex treatment environments such as MR-guided systems and proton therapy. He has published extensively on topics like FLASH radiotherapy, scintillator-based dosimetry, and the impact of magnetic fields on radiation measurements.

Andersen’s work often involves interdisciplinary collaboration, addressing challenges in clinical implementation of cutting-edge radiation techniques. His projects frequently involve preclinical models to evaluate treatment efficacy and safety, with a focus on translating laboratory findings into clinical practice.
