Heavy ion radiotherapy used for cancer treatment involves the acceleration of carbon ions to 70% of the speed of light to deliver radiation to cancer cells and cause cell death. This therapy is also expected to be effective in cancers that are difficult to treat or do not respond to conventional treatments. Furthermore, this therapy is associated with several advantages such as shorter treatment duration and fewer side effects.
- Offers a deep dive into the fundamental accelerator and medical physics techniques and technologies used in cancer radiotherapy
- Considers the updated status of hospitals and clinical facilities, safety, education and future research trends
- Covers advanced research and development of X-ray therapy, electron beam therapy and particle therapy
