Technique for sparing previously irradiated critical normal structures in salvage proton craniospinal irradiation

BACKGROUND: Cranial reirradiation is clinically appropriate in some cases but cumulative radiation dose to critical normal structures remains a practical concern. The authors developed a simple technique in 3D conformal proton craniospinal irradiation (CSI) to block organs at risk (OAR) while minimi...
