Measurement of Proton Beam Distribution by Diamond Detector

Journal 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

Proton Beam Therapy for Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: A Multicenter Prospective Registry Study in Japan

Liver Cancer, 2023
Introduction: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) can be treated with chemotherapy in unresectable cases, but outcomes are poor. Proton beam therapy (PBT) may provide an alternative treatment and has good dose concentration that may improve local ...

Clinical Review of Proton Therapy in the Treatment of Unilateral Head and Neck Cancers [PDF]

International Journal of Particle Therapy, 2021
Radiotherapy is a common treatment modality in the management of head and neck malignancies. In select clinical scenarios of well-lateralized tumors, radiotherapy can be delivered to the primary tumor or tumor bed and the ipsilateral nodal regions, while
