Reproducing the NIRS-QST Clinical Dose Calculations for Carbon Ion Radiotherapy Using Microdosimetric Probability Density Distributions

Reproducing the NIRS-QST Clinical Dose Calculations for Carbon Ion Radiotherapy Using Microdosimetric Probability Density Distributions

Ion radiotherapy requires accurate relative biological effectiveness (RBE) calculations to account for the markedly different biological effects of ions compared to photons. Microdosimetric RBE models rely on descriptions of the energy deposition at the microscopic scale, either through radial dose...
