High-Energy Charged Particles for Spatially Fractionated Radiation Therapy

Spatially fractionated radiotherapy (SFRT) offers a gain in normal tissue sparing with respect to standard seamless irradiations. The benefits of SFRT may be further enhanced by replacing the commonly used photon beams by charged particles. Along this line, proton SFRT has already shown a significan...
