Towards patient selection for cranial proton beam therapy – Assessment of current patient-individual treatment decision strategies

Dutz, AlmutTechnische Universität Dresden

Proton beam therapy shows dosimetric advantages in terms of sparing healthy tissue compared to conventional photon radiotherapy. Those patients who are supposed to experience the greatest reduction in side effects should preferably be treated with proton beam therapy. One option for this patient …
