Stochastic Microdosimetric Kinetic model for hypo-fractionated multi-ion therapy

open access: yes, 2019
The microdosimetric kinetic (MK) model is a biological model used to predict cell-survival fractions from the specific energy absorbed by a microscopic subnuclear structure, domain, for various radiations.

Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) of Monoenergetic Protons: Comparison of Empirical and Biophysical Models

open access: yesApplied Sciences
A constant proton relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 for tumor control is currently used in proton therapy treatment planning. However, in vitro, in vivo and clinical experiences indicate that proton RBE varies with kinetic energy and ...
