Fluorescent nuclear track detectors for out‐of‐field neutron dosimetry in proton therapy
Abstract Background Secondary neutrons are a major concern regarding side effects in ion beam therapy because they contribute to the out‐of‐field dose, particularly important for sensitive patient groups such as pregnant and pediatric patients. Measuring these neutrons is challenging because of their high kinetic energy, which is imparted to charged ...

Abstract Background Proton pencil beam scanning (PBS) enables highly conformal dose distributions; however, its lateral dose fall‐off (penumbra) can be compromised by the use of range shifters (RSs) and increased air gaps. In PBS for head and neck regions, where critical organs at risk (OARs) are frequently adjacent to the target, penumbra degradation ...

Carbon Ion Radiotherapy for Lung Cancer
Although stage I non-small cell lung cancer can often be cured by surgical resection, in some cases, surgery cannot be performed or is refused by the patient. There is a critical need to develop safe and effective treatments to reduce the mortality of lung cancer in such patients.

Advances in Elemene Nanodelivery Systems: From Material Design to Disease Treatment
ABSTRACT Elemene (ELE) is a bioactive sesquiterpenoid extracted from traditional Chinese herbs, demonstrating broad‐spectrum antitumor, anti‐inflammatory, and analgesic properties with significant therapeutic potential. However, its clinical utility is constrained by inherent physicochemical limitations, including volatility and hydrophobicity, which ...
