Differences in Biological Responses to Ultra-high Dose Rate Proton Irradiation Between Entrance and SOBP Regions In Vitro

Background/Aim: Ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) radiotherapy has been reported to reduce normal tissue toxicity while maintaining tumor control. However, whether proton FLASH induces different biological responses in the entrance versus spread-out Bragg peak (SOBP) regions under con...
