Thesis
Towards photon FLASH radiotherapy
- Abstract:
-
FLASH radiotherapy is a promising treatment modality that employs ultra-high dose rates (>=40 Gy/s) and short delivery times (<1 s) to achieve enhanced normal tissue sparing while maintaining equivalent tumour control compared to conventional radiotherapy. Since most clinical treatments worldwide are delivered with photon beams from linear accelerators, the most feasible route toward widespread clinical adoption of FLASH lies in photon-based implementations. However, the majority of pre...
