Integrating a Ripple Filter into Pencil Beam Scanning Proton Therapy for Breast Cancer: from Dosimetric Feasibility to Acute Toxicity Assessment

Pencil beam scanning (PBS) proton therapy (PT) offers superior dosimetric advantages for breast cancer treatment. However, synchrotron-based facilities frequently encounter throughput limitations due to slow energy layer switching, particularly problematic for superficial targets...
