Radiation-induced secondary malignancy following particle therapy
Radiation-induced cancer is a serious late effect following radiotherapy
With the rapid developments in radiotherapy there is an increasing need for outcome
prediction models for late effects of new treatment techniques
Currently much uncertainty is associated with carcinogenesis from photon based
radiotherapy, and the uncertainty is even higher for particle therapy
