MOLECULAR CELLULAR EFFECTS BY PROTON AND γ-IRRADIATION IN THE B16 MURINE MELANOMA MODEL IN VIVO
Journal: Cardiometry
Year: 2023

Proton and photon (γ-) radiation is widely used in modern clinical practice for the treatment of malignant tumors of various locations. The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of accelerated protons is about 1.1, as follows from the results of experimental studies of clonogenic survival of tumor cells in vitro. But however, despite the low RBE of proton radiation, a number of clinical studies have shown a significant increase in relapse-free and overall survival of patients after proton ther
