The application of proton beams to the treatment of solid cancers has expanded exponentially over the last decade due to their physical properties, which make it possible to administer higher doses of radiation to lesions with only a minimum dose to the surrounding healthy tissues. Accordingly, understanding the basic aspects of proton beam radiotherapy is a primary concern not only for medical physicists and radiation biologists, but also for all physicians involved in cancer treatment using proton beams.. .The major aspects discussed include the technique’s development background, the generation and delivery system for proton beams, physical characteristics, biological consequences, dosimetry, and future prospects in both medical physics and radiation biology in terms of effective cancer treatment. Gathering contributions from experts who provide clear and detailed information on the basics of proton beams, the book will greatly benefit not only radiological technicians, medical physicists, and physicians, but also scientists in cancer radio | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Cancer treatment; Solid cancer; Beam delivery systems; DNA damage; Dosimetry; Radiaton Oncology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-7454-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-13-7456-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-13-7454-8 | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020 |
