Clinical Implementation of Proton Therapy Using Pencil-Beam Scanning Delivery Combined With Static Apertures

Proton therapy makes use of the favorable depth-dose distribution with its characteristic Bragg peak to spare normal tissue distal of the target volume. A steep dose gradient would be desired in lateral dimensions, too. The widespread spot scanning delivery technique is based, however, on pencil-bea...
