Prediction of risks of cardiac mortality and secondary cancers after thoracic radiotherapy in adolescents and young adults
Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) is believed to improve the therapeutic ratio by reducing the dose to normal tissue as compared to three dimensional conformal (photon) radiotherapy (3D-CRT). This hypothesis is investigated in this work by predicting the risks of late radiation-induced effec...
