劳伦斯伯克利实验室目前正在进行一些研究,以评估高能带电粒子束用于放射治疗的潜力。正在进行的研究的范围如此之大,因此本文件只能对其中的一部分进行评述。这里强调的是那些研究的结果,在这些研究中,对可用离子,即碳、氖和氩的光束进行了比较。此外,还强调了收集了深入传播的宽光束数据的研究,这是放射治疗师最感兴趣的。在介绍了相对生物效能(RBE)和氧增强比(OER)的特性后,讨论了这些光束的一些相当有趣但并不完全预期的特性。
A number of studies are presently underway at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory to evaluate the potential of high-energy charged-particle beams for use in radiotherapy. The scope of the ongoing studies is such that only a portion can be reviewed in the present paper. Emphasis is placed here on the results of those studies in which comparisons have been made between the beams of the available ions, i.e., carbon, neon and argon. Also, studies are stressed which have gathered data on the broad beams spread in depth, which are most interesting to the radiotherapist. After a survey is presented of the properties of relative biological effectiveness (RBE) and oxygen enhancement ratio (OER), some rather interesting and not altogether expected characteristics of these beams are discussed.
