recommendations! Published in 2019 at "Advances in Radiation Oncology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.adro.2018.08.020

Abstract: Purpose To evaluate how using models of proton therapy that incorporate variable relative biological effectiveness (RBE) versus the current practice of using a fixed RBE of 1.1 affects dosimetric indices on treatment plans for large… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/0284186x.2017.1354131

Abstract: Abstract Background: Organ motion during radiation therapy with scanned protons leads to deviations between the planned and the delivered physical dose. Using a constant relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 linearly maps these deviations into… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6560/abc12d

Abstract: IntroductionA constant relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 is currently used in clinical proton therapy. However, the RBE varies with factors such as dose level, linear energy transfer (LET) and tissue type. Multiple RBE models… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/rpd/ncy234

Abstract: An experimental and simulation-based study was performed on a 12C ion minibeam radiation therapy (MBRT) field produced with a clinical broad beam and a brass multi-slit collimator (MSC). Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) microdosimeters developed at the Centre… read more here.
