Comparison of risk of radiogenic second cancer following photon and proton craniospinal irradiation for a pediatric medulloblastoma patient

Pediatric patients who received radiation therapy are at risk of developing side effects like radiogenic second cancer. We compared proton and photon therapies in terms of the predicted risk of second cancers for a 4-year-old medulloblastoma patient receiving craniospinal irradiation (CSI). Two CSI...
