Absorbed dose and biological effect in light ion therapy

Absorbed dose and biological effect in light ion therapy

Radiation therapy with light ions improves treatment outcome for a number of tumor types. The advantageous dose distributions of light ion beams en-able exceptional target conformity, which assures high dose delivery to the tumor while minimizing the dose to surrounding normal tissues. The demand of...
