Comparison of simulations with PHITS and HIBRAC with experimental data in the context of particle therapy monitoring

Therapeutic irradiation with protons and ions is advantageous over radiotherapy with photons due to its favorable dose deposition. Additionally, ion beams provide a higher relative biological effectiveness than photons. For this reason, an improved treatment of deep-seated tumors is achieved and nor...
