In-vivo Local control of 3 sublines of prostate carcinoma after 1 fx
of
photons
and
C-ions
•
The response to C-ions is less dependent on resistance factors as well as on
heterogeneity between and within tumor sublines as compared to photons.
•
Correlation between decreasing differentiation status and increasing RBE.
