Dosimetric Impact of Proton Variable Relative Biological Effectiveness (vRBE) In the Treatment of Ocular Cancers
Proton radiation therapy (PRT) is an effective modality for ocular cancers. Substantial evidence indicates that proton relative biological effectiveness (RBE) increases with linear energy transfer (LET). In vitro DNA double-strand break (DSB) and cell surviva...
