Single Ultra-High Dose Rate Proton Transmission Beam for Whole Breast FLASH-Irradiation: Quantification of FLASH-Dose and Relation with Beam Parameters

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Ultra-high dose-rate (UHDR) irradiation can lead to a FLASH-effect which reduces the biological effect on healthy tissue without affecting the dose to the tumor. UHDRs can currently be achieved using 250 MeV (transmission) proton beams. Up until now, suggested treatment sites potenti...
