Fast Spot Order Optimization to Increase Dose Rates in Scanned Particle Therapy FLASH Treatments
Viktor Wase, Oscar Widenfalk, Rasmus Nilsson +2
The advent of ultra-high dose rate irradiation, known as FLASH radiation therapy, has shown promising potential in reducing toxicity while maintaining tumor control. However, the c…
