It has been consistently established, that particle

therapy reduces the integral volume of normal tissue

irradiated – the “low-moderate” dose bath compared

to photons.

(example: 10-30 Gy in case of H&N cancer, 20 Gy in

Lung Cancer, 10-30 Gy in CNS Tumors )

But you think there is not really clinical proof that in

adult patients the dose bath matters – that it will

impact quality of life or will cause other long term

side effects.
