Clinical intensity modulated proton therapy for Hodgkin lymphoma: which patients benefit the most? by Ntentas, G, Dedeckova, K, Andrlik, M, Aznar, M, George, B, Kubeš, J, Darby, S, Cutter, D

“…<p><strong>Purpose</strong></p> <p>Radiation therapy (RT) improves control of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), but patients who undergo RT are at risk for late effects, including cardiovascular disease and second cancers, because of radiation doses to organs at risk (OARs). Proton therapy (PT) can reduce OAR doses compared with conventional photon RT. …”
