Proton pencil minibeam irradiation of an in-vivo mouse ear model spares healthy tissue dependent on beam size

Proton radiotherapy using minibeams of sub-millimeter dimensions reduces side effects in comparison to conventional proton therapy due to spatial fractionation. Since the proton minibeams widen with depth, the homogeneous irradiation of a tumor can be ensured by adjusting the beam distances to tumor...
