This project explores proton minibeam radiation therapy, a novel approach to enhance cancer treatment by increasing normal tissue resistance while escalating tumor doses. It aims to improve outcomes for radioresistant tumors and pediatric oncology by developing methods for minibeam generation and dosimetric tools.
Radiotherapy (RT) is one of the most frequently used methods for cancer treatment (above 50% of patients will receive RT).
Despite remarkable advancements, the dose tolerances of normal tissues continue to be the main limitation in RT.
Finding novel approaches that allow increasing normal tissue resistance is of utmost importance.
This would make it possible to escalate tumour dose, resulting in an improvement in cure rate.
With this aim, I propose a new approach, called proton minibeam radiatio…
