Application of intrahepatic fiducial markers in carbon ion radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer—Achieving higher precision treatment

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Background Carbon‐ion radiotherapy (CIRT) delivers highly conformal tumor doses while sparing surrounding organs‐at‐risk (OAR). However, density variations along the beam path and interfractional target motion can reduce target coverage and expose OAR to high doses.

Clinical consequences of relative biological effectiveness variations in proton radiotherapy of the prostate, brain and liver [PDF]

, 2013
Proton relative biological effectiveness (RBE) is known to depend on the (alpha/beta)(x) of irradiated tissues, with evidence of similar to 60% variation over (alpha/beta)(x) values from 1-10 Gy.

Assessment of the impact of CT scan protocols on carbon ion radiotherapy treatment planning

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to quantify the impact of computed tomography (CT) scan protocols and CT scanner on carbon ion radiotherapy treatment planning Material and Methods A table was created for each of the five parameters to relate CT values to stopping power (SPR) (CT‐SPR conversion table).

Investigation of factors related to treatment planning of x‐ray SBRT and scanning carbon‐ion radiation therapy for early‐stage lung cancer patients

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract This study aimed to compare the treatment plans of x‐ray SBRT and scanning carbon ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for localized lung tumors, and to evaluate the dose dependence of tumor size tumor‐to‐heart distance. For phantom verification, we used a chest phantom with a spherical simulated tumor.

Dose–Volume Constraints for Thoracic, Abdominal, and Pelvic Carbon Ion Radiotherapy: A Literature Review

Cancer Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 7, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Applying dose–volume constraints is extremely important in ensuring the safe use of radiotherapy. However, constraints for carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) have not been established yet. This review aims to summarize dose–volume constraints for thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic CIRT that have been identified through previous research ...
