Cancers, 2020 Simple Summary Radiotherapy with carbon ions has been used for over 20 years in Asia and Europe and is now planned in the USA. The physics advantages of carbon ions compared to X-rays are similar to those of protons, but their radiobiological features ...

Radiobiology of the flash effect. [PDF]
Medical Physics, 2021 Radiation exposures at ultra-high dose rates (UHDR) at several orders of magnitude greater than in current clinical radiotherapy have been shown to manifest differential radiobiological responses compared to conventional dose rates (CONV).

The Radiobiology of Radiopharmaceuticals.
Seminars in Radiation Oncology, 2021 Radiopharmaceutical therapy or targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) is a well-established class of cancer therapeutics that includes a growing number of FDA-approved drugs and a promising pipeline of experimental therapeutics. Radiobiology is fundamental to a mechanistic understanding of the therapeutic capacity of these agents and their potential ...

, 2023 AbstractThe study of the biologic effects of space radiation is considered a “hot topic,” with increased interest in the past years. In this chapter, the unique characteristics of the space radiation environment will be covered, from their history, characterization, and biological effects to the research that has been and is being conducted in the ...

Cancers, 2015 In addition to the physical advantages (Bragg peak), the use of charged particles in cancer therapy can be associated with distinct biological effects compared to X-rays. While heavy ions (densely ionizing radiation) are known to have an energy- and charge-dependent increased Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE), protons should not be very ...
