Effects of high LET radiation on murine skin and tumors
- 1. National Inst. of Radiological Sciences, Chiba (Japan)
Description
Physical characteristic of charged particle beams promise an excellent dose distribution by which a deep-seated tumor could be irradiated with Spread-Out-Bragg-Peak (SOBP) while its surrounding normal tissues would receive minimal doses. As we have already experienced cyclotron fast neutrons, and will use carbon beams in clinical trials, comparisons of biological effectiveness between carbons and neutrons are of great interest. We here investigated and reported effects of carbons, neons and neutrons on the skin and transplanted tumors in mice. (author)
