Joint symposium 2009 on carbon ion radiotherapy
The clinical results of carbon ion therapy pioneered in Japan remain promising, especially in a wide range of cancers that are difficult to treat using X-rays. As well as producing impressive tumour control rates, there appears to be a marked reduction in radiation-related toxicity, as would be expected from the advantageous dose distributions.

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

Carbon ion radiotherapy in NIRS
High linear energy transfer (LET) charged particle therapy with carbon ions has been of interest in the treatment of malignant tumors because of better dose localization in the tumor volume and greater biologic effectiveness. In 1984, the Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC) was constructed at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences ...
