The Organ Sparing Potential of Different Biological Optimization Strategies in Proton Therapy

The Organ Sparing Potential of Different Biological Optimization Strategies in Proton Therapy

Purpose: Variable relative biological effectiveness (RBE) models allow for differences in linear energy transfer (LET), physical dose, and tissue type to be accounted for when quantifying and optimizing the biological damage of protons. These models are complex and fraught with uncertainties, and th...
