Modulation of gene expression in endothelial cells in response to high LET nickel ion irradiation [PDF]
, 2014 Ionizing radiation can elicit harmful effects on the cardiovascular system at high doses. Endothelial cells are critical targets in radiation-induced cardiovascular damage.

Boron‐10 carriers and their applications in boron neutron capture therapy
Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.Summary of different types of boron drugs. Abstract Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) has emerged as a promising therapeutic modality in cancer treatment, demonstrating the ability to selectively eliminate cancer cells through the 10B(n,α)7Li nuclear reaction with minimal side effects on normal tissues.

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Shahīd Ṣadūqī Yazd, 2019 Introdution: A careful study of the physical and biological properties of helium ion radiation on the various cell lines is essential for the treatment planning. In this study, the biological response of several different cell lines has been investigated

Tumour Therapy with Particle Beams [PDF]
, 2000 Photons are exponentially attenuated in matter producing high doses close to the surface. Therefore they are not well suited for the treatment of deep seated tumours. Charged particles, in contrast, exhibit a sharp increase of ionisation density close to

On the use of quality factors and fluence to dose rate conversion in human radiation exposures [PDF]
, 1972 It is shown that various combinations of numbers and factors arrive at estimates of dose and dose effectiveness from values of fluence; but as yet it has not been possible to use biological data with the same degree of precision to estimate the physical ...

Precision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.There is no specific therapeutic drug regimen for radiation esophagitis. In previous studies, radiation esophagitis was considered a self‐limiting disease; however, current clinical approaches are limited to symptomatic treatment, which yields unsatisfactory therapeutic outcomes.

New insights in the relative radiobiological effectiveness of proton irradiation
Radiation Oncology, 2018 Background Proton radiotherapy is a form of charged particle therapy that is preferentially applied for the treatment of tumors positioned near to critical structures due to their physical characteristics, showing an inverted depth-dose profile.
