Relative Biological Effectiveness (RBE) of Monoenergetic Protons: Comparison of Empirical and Biophysical Models

A constant proton relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 for tumor control is currently used in proton therapy treatment planning. However, in vitro, in vivo and clinical experiences indicate that proton RBE varies with kinetic energy and, therefore, tissue depth within proton Bragg peaks. A...
