Proton beam therapy [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2005
Conventional radiation therapy directs photons (X-rays) and electrons at tumours with the intent of eradicating the neoplastic tissue while preserving adjacent normal tissue. Radiation-induced damage to healthy tissue and second malignancies are always a concern, however, when administering radiation.

Measurement of Proton Beam Distribution by Diamond Detector

open access: yesJournal of Isotopes, 2023
Proton beam therapy (PBT) can achieve the effect of precision radiotherapy due to its unique Bragg peak. In the process of proton therapy, the peak can be accurately located to the tumor area, which can give the tumor a larger dose of irradiation, reduce
