EVALUATION OF NEUTRON AMBIENT DOSE EQUIVALENT IN INTENSITY-MODULATED COMPOSITE PARTICLE THERAPY
Radiation Protection Dosimetry, 2021 Abstract Several studies have reported benefits derived from cancer treatment using various heavy-ion beams. Based on these reports, the National Institutes for Quantum and Radiological Science and Technology started developing intensity-modulated composite particle therapy (IMPACT) using He-, C-, O-, and Ne-ions.
