Radiobiophysical Measurements for the Extension to other Ions WP5-6 2 ESR positions at GSI Part 1: Physics Part 2: Biology PARTNER Kick-Off-Meeting . – p.1/7
Motivation 1 - Carbon or Lighter . – p.2/7
Motivation 2 - Something Heavier? (Michael Scholz) . – p.3/7
Choice of the Right Ion Protons - no advantage for radioresistant tumors, - large lateral scattering Question: Do other light ions have advantages for special tumors? Carbon + RBE: low in the entrance, enhanced in the tumor + - reduced OER but only on the last mm Heavier Ions - enhanced RBE in the entrance, more fragmentation + reduced OER Question: Is there a heavier ion with reduced OER but tolerable RBE in the entrance? . – p.4/7
