Abstract The anticipated clinical demand for carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) in the United States is expected to include a substantial proportion of clinically complex disease sites that require accurate, highly conformal, and adaptive treatment. These clinical needs, together with the unique physical and biological characteristics of carbon ion beams ...

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

Dynamic Proton arc therapy for paediatric parameningeal rhabdomyosarcoma
Abstract Background Parameningeal rhabdomyosarcomas (PM‐RMS) are pediatric tumors with a high risk of local failure and severe toxicity. Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) offers improved healthy tissue sparing compared to conventional photon‐based radiotherapy, and proton arc therapy (PAT) might offer further improvement in healthy tissue ...

Abstract Carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) has evolved into an established clinical modality over the past three decades. Owing to its unique physical and biological characteristics, CIRT has demonstrated favorable outcomes for selected malignancies characterized by radioresistance, proximity to critical organs, locally advanced disease requiring safe ...

Abstract Background Carbon‐ion radiotherapy exploits high linear energy transfer (LET) to enhance biological effectiveness, and low dose‐averaged LET (LETd) within the target volume is associated with local recurrence in pancreatic cancer. Although robust optimization is widely used to improve dose robustness against delivery uncertainties, systematic ...

A pH‐switchable cerium single‐atom enzyme is developed for stage‐specific peri‐implantitis therapy. Acidic conditions trigger antibacterial peroxidase‐like activity, whereas neutral conditions activate an antioxidant superoxide dismutase ‐ and catalase ‐like enzymatic relay. This microenvironment‐adaptive catalytic strategy suppresses the IL‐6/JAK‐STAT
