A biological modelling based comparison of radiotherapy plan robustness using photons vs protons for focal prostate boosting
Background and purpose: Focal tumour boosting is currently explored in radiotherapy of prostate cancer to increase tumour control. In this study we applied dose response models for both tumour control and normal tissue complications to explore the benefit of proton therapy (PT) combined with focal t...
