Longitudinal Tumor, Vascular, and Immune Cell Response in Two Rat Prostate Carcinomas After Isoeffective Photon, Proton, and Carbon Ion Irradiation: Impact of Linear Energy Transfer, Dose Level, and Hypoxia

Background/Objectives: High linear energy transfer (LET) carbon ions achieved more effective and biologically robust tumor control than photons in preclinical prostate cancer models; however, the longitudinal development of histopathological parameters remains insufficiently char...
