In Vitro Comparison of Passive and Active Clinical Proton Beams

In Vitro Comparison of Passive and Active Clinical Proton Beams

Nowadays, the irradiation methodology in proton therapy is switching from the use of passively scattered beams to active pencil beams due to the possibility of more conformal dose distributions. The dose rates of active pencil beams are much higher than those of passive beams. The purpose of this st...
