Variation of the relative biological effectiveness in the penumbra of ion therapy beams estimated using different microdosimetric approaches

Variation of the relative biological effectiveness in the penumbra of ion therapy beams estimated using different microdosimetric approaches

Background and Purpose: The effort to translate clinical findings across institutions employing different relative biological effectiveness (RBE) models of ion radiotherapy has rapidly grown in recent years. Nevertheless, even for a chosen RBE model, different implementations exist. These approaches...
