Antiviral therapy with small particle aerosols
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1988The generation and use of small particle aqueous aerosols (1.23 microns aerodynamic mass median diameter, GSD = 2.0 microns) containing ribavirin is described. Administered via aerosol, ribavirin will be deposited rather uniformly on the surface of the nasopharynx, the tracheobronchial tree and in the pulmonary area.

With the arrival of 3-dimensional conformal radiation therapy and intensity modulated radiation therapy, radiation dose distributions in radiation oncology have improved dramatically over the past couple of decades. As part of a natural progression there recently has been a resurgence of interest in hadron therapy, specifically charged particle therapy,

Particle therapy and treatment of cancer
The Lancet Oncology, 2006The desire of radiation oncologists and medical physicists to maximise the radiation dose to the tumour while minimising that to healthy tissues has led to attempts to improve the dose distributions and biological effects achievable with photons and electrons.

A Practical Primer on Particle Therapy
Practical Radiation OncologyParticle therapy is a promising treatment technique that is becoming more commonly used. Although proton beam therapy remains the most commonly used particle therapy, multiple other heavier ions have been used in the preclinical and clinical settings, each with its own unique properties.

Radiobiology of Particle Therapy
The Cancer JournalModern photon-based, intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) kills tumors but may also excessively damage normal tissues; the resultant morbidity can prompt treatment interruptions, worsen tumor control, and degrade quality of life. Charged particles (eg, protons, carbon ions) may be less toxic and more effective than IMRT because particles ...

Particle therapy for cancers: a new weapon in radiation therapy
Frontiers of Medicine, 2012Particle irradiation started to draw attention in the past decade and has now become a hotspot in the radiation oncology community. This article reviews the most advanced developments in particle irradiation, focusing on the characteristics of proton and carbon ions in radiation physics and radiobiology.
