Dose Profile Modulation of Proton Minibeam for Clinical Application

Dose Profile Modulation of Proton Minibeam for Clinical Application

The feasibility of proton minibeam radiation therapy (pMBRT) using a multislit collimator (MSC) and a scattering device was evaluated for clinical use at a clinical proton therapy facility. We fabricated, through Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, not only an MSC with a high peak-to-valley dose ratio (PV...
