Proton beam therapy (PBT) has great advantages as tumor radiotherapy and is progressively becoming a more prevalent choice for individuals undergoing radiation therapy. The objective of this review is to pinpoint collaborative efforts among countries and institutions, while also exploring the hot topics and future outlook in the field of PBT. Data from publications were downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection. CiteSpace and Excel 2016 were used to conduct the bibliometric and knowledge map analysis. A total of 6516 publications were identified, with the total number of articles steadily increasing and the United States being the most productive country. Harvard University took the lead in contributing the highest number of publications. Paganetti Harald published the most articles and had the most cocitations. PHYS MED BIOL published the greatest number of PBT-related articles, while INT J RADIAT ONCOL received the most citations. Paganetti Harald, 2012, PHYS MED BIOL can be classified as classic literature due to its high citation rate. We believe that research on technology development, dose calculation and relative biological effectiveness were the knowledge bases in this field. Future research hotspots may include clinical trials, flash radiotherapy, and immunotherapy.
质子束疗法（PBT）作为肿瘤放疗具有巨大优势，正逐渐成为放疗患者更普遍的选择。本综述旨在指出各国和各机构之间的合作努力，同时探讨 PBT 领域的热门话题和未来展望。从 Web of Science Core Collection 下载出版物数据。使用 CiteSpace 和 Excel 2016 进行文献计量和知识图谱分析。共确定了 6516 篇出版物，文章总数稳步增加，美国是最具生产力的国家。哈佛大学在发表论文数量最多方面处于领先地位。Paganetti Harald 发表的文章最多，被引次数最多。PHYS MED BIOL 发表的 PBT 相关文章最多，而 INT J RADIAT ONCOL 被引次数最多。Paganetti Harald，2012，PHYS MED BIOL 因其高引用率可归类为经典文献。我们认为，技术开发、剂量计算和相对生物学效应的研究是该领域的知识基础。未来的研究热点可能包括临床试验、闪射放疗和免疫疗法。
