Reirradiation and irradiation of sarcoma is often difficult due to the frequent need for a high dose of radiation in order to increase tumor control. This can result in a greater risk of toxicity which can be mitigated with the use of proton therapy. The present review aims to summarize the role of proton therapy in these 2 clinical contexts.
由于需要高剂量的辐射以提高肿瘤控制率,肉瘤的再放疗和放疗通常很困难。这可能会导致更大的毒性风险,而质子治疗可以减轻这种风险。本综述旨在总结质子治疗在这两种临床情况下的作用。
