Brachytherapy dose attributable to a brachytherapy source is computed for portions of a patient treatment volume corresponding to a pathological target volume and critical structures. Patient image data is accessed to derive a material voxel array. Multiple computation grids are derived. Primary particle fluence is computed for each first grid element using a ray tracing process from which a primary dose and a first scattered particle source are derived. Scattered particle fluence of the first scattered particle source is derived for each second grid element from which a secondary dose is derived. Each first grid element corresponds to a plurality of second grid elements. Primary dose and scattered dose combine to provide total dose at specific volumes. Brachytherapy source models and non-anatomical body surface models may be applied as applicable.

The charge state of ions produced by electrospray ionization is reduced in a controlled manner to yield predominantly singly charged ions through reactions with bipolar ions generated using a <210>Po alpha particle source or equivalent. The multiply charged ions generated by the electrospray undergo charge reduction in a charge reduction chamber. The charge-reduced ions are then detected using a commercial orthogonal electrospray TOF mass spectrometer, although the charge reduction chamber can be adapted to virtually any mass analyzer. The results obtained exhibit a signal intensity drop-off with increased oligonucleotide size similar to that observed with MALDI mass spectrometry, yet with the softness of ESI and without the off-line sample purification and pre-separation required by MALDI.
