Out-of-field dose assessment for pencil beam scanning proton radiotherapy versus photon radiotherapy for breast cancer in pregnant women
Background and purpose: Cancer affects 1 in 1000–2000 pregnancies annually worldwide, creating challenges in balancing cancer treatment and fetal safety. This study compares out-of-field radiation doses between two treatment modalities: 6MV external photon radiotherapy (XRT) and pencil beam scanning...
