  1. 11. Radiotherapy in a FLASH : Towards clinical translation of ultra-high dose rate electron therapy

    Författare :Elise Konradsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Radiotherapy; Dosimetry; Ultra-high dose rate; Electron therapy; FLASH; Fysicumarkivet A:2023:Konradsson;

    Sammanfattning : FLASH radiotherapy (FLASH-RT) is a promising new approach to radiotherapy that has the potential to transform the field. By administering radiation at ultra-high dose rates (UHDR) on a millisecond timescale, FLASH-RT may increase normal tissue tolerance compared to conventional radiotherapy while maintaining the anti-tumoral effect.
