FLASH and minibeams in radiation therapy: the effect of microstructures on time and space and their potential application to protontherapy

After years of lethargy, studies on two non-conventional microstructures in time and space of the beams used in radiation therapy are enjoying a huge revival. The first effect called “FLASH” is based on very high dose-rate irradiation (pulse amplitude ≥10(6) Gy/s), short beam-on times (≤100 ms) and...
