Visualization of complex DNA double-strand breaks in a tumor treated with carbon ion radiotherapy.
Carbon ion radiotherapy shows great potential as a cure for X-ray-resistant tumors. Basic research suggests that the strong cell-killing effect induced by carbon ions is based on their ability to cause complex DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs).

The use of charged particles in medical radiotherapy(RT)was first suggested in 1946 by physicist Robert Wilson, a formerstudent of Ernest Lawrence, Nobel Prize winner for developing the cyclotron at the University of California, Berkeley. Following his perticipation in the Manhattan project and having been disap-pointed at the use of atomic weapons ...

Overview of carbon ion radiotherapy
In cancer radiotherapy (RT), ion beams such as proton and carbon ion beams have unique characteristics of improved dose distributions, enabling a delivery of sufficient dose to the target volume while minimizing the dose in the surrounding normal tissues. In addition, carbon ions being heavier than protons provide a higher biological effectiveness with
