Exploring the advantages of intensity-modulated proton therapy: experimental validation of biological effects using two different beam intensity-modulation patterns

In current treatment plans of intensity-modulated proton therapy, high-energy beams are usually assigned larger weights than low-energy beams. Using this form of beam delivery strategy cannot effectively use the biological advantages of low-energy and high-linear energy transfer (LET) protons presen...
