Investigation on using high‐energy proton beam for total body irradiation (TBI)

This work investigated the possibility of using proton beam for total body irradiation (TBI). We hypothesized the broad‐slow‐rising entrance dose from a monoenergetic proton beam can deliver a uniform dose to patient with varied thickness. Comparing to photon‐based TBI, it would not require any pati...
