An external perpendicular magnetic field does not influence survival and DNA damage after proton and carbon ion irradiation in human cancer cells

Background and purpose: Magnetic field effects on the radiobiological effectiveness during treatment of magnetic resonance (MRI) guided particle therapy are being debated. This study aims at assessing the influence of a perpendicular magnetic field on the biological effects in two human cancer cell...
