A Novel Proton Pencil Beam Scanning FLASH RT Delivery Method Enables Optimal OAR Sparing and Ultra-High Dose Rate Delivery: A Comprehensive Dosimetry Study for Lung Tumors

SIMPLE SUMMARY: This study attempts to answer a novel and clinically relevant question of the value of Bragg-peak-based FLASH planning for lung tumors. Most existing studies and literature are limited to using transmission proton beams at ultra-high dose rates, resulting in unnecessary irradiation e...
