Investigating Dependencies of Relative Biological Effectiveness for Proton Therapy in Cancer Cells

1 Oct 2017

Abstract excerpt

Purpose: Relative biological effectiveness (RBE) accounts for the differences in biological effect from different radiation types. The RBE for proton therapy remains uncertain, as it has been shown to vary from the clinically used value of 1.1. In this work we investigated the RBE of protons and correlated the biological differences with the underlying physical quantities. Materials and Methods: Three cell lines...
