Achieving effective tumour control while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues remains a critical goal in radiotherapy. Proton minibeam radiotherapy (pMBRT), an advanced form of spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT), has emerged as a promising approach to address these challenges.</div><div>pMBRT employs a mechanical collimator to spatially fractionate a broad proton beam into multiple narrow beamlets, creating a dose distribution with high-dose peaks and low-dose valleys in shallow regions. As the beamlets travel deeper into tissue, multiple Coulomb scattering facilitates their convergence, resulting in a uniform dose at the tumour target.</div><div>This study systematically optimized the collimator design by evaluating various geometries and materials, specifically brass and polylactic acid (PLA). Simulations of dose distributions were performed using the Tool for Particle Simulation (TOPAS) and validated through experimental measurements with Gafchromic films. Results indicated that brass collimators, with their high atomic number, produced sharper dose profiles and higher peak-to-valley dose ratios (PVDR), demonstrating superior spatial dose modulation. Conversely, PLA collimators yielded smoother dose profiles and lower secondary dose contributions, showcasing their potential for reducing collateral tissue damage.</div><div>The optimized collimator design, featuring a 0.8 mm slit width and a 1 mm spacing, achieved an ideal balance between maximizing PVDR and ensuring uniform beam recombination at the target depth.

For this, the self-attenuation effect corrections must be properly applied for each case in order to transform the calibration sample FEPE into problem sample FEPE. Nowadays, different experimental and simulated methodologies such as Cutshall and Appleby models, and LabSOCS, EFFTRAN, DETEFF, PENELOPE and Geant4, respectively, are generally applied to obtain the problem sample FEPE.

Moreover, an exhaustive comparison among FEPEs obtained using experimental and simulated methodologies was addressed.

The linear and mass attenuation coefficients of the samples were determined using energetic gamma rays of 0.059 MeV (Am-241), 0.662 MeV (Cs-137) and 1.25 MeV (Co-60), as well as energetic beta rays with an Emax value of 2.25 MeV.
