FLASH-RT for pulmonary protection: a comprehensive review of mechanisms, technological advances, and clinical translation. [PDF]
FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT), characterized by ultra-high dose rates (>40 Gy/s), has demonstrated remarkable normal tissue-sparing effects in preclinical models while maintaining tumor control. This review specifically focuses on FLASH-mediated pulmonary protection, a critical concern in thoracic oncology.
