In vitro biological response of cancer and normal tissue cells to proton irradiation not affected by an added magnetic field

To optimize beam delivery and conformality of proton therapy, MRI integration has been proposed. Therefore, we investigated if proton irradiation in a magnetic field would change biological responses. Our data in cancer cell lines and stem cell-derived organoid models suggest that a magnetic field d...

Zusammenfassung:To optimize beam delivery and conformality of proton therapy, MRI integration has been proposed. Therefore, we investigated if proton irradiation in a magnetic field would change biological responses. Our data in cancer cell lines and stem cell-derived organoid models suggest that a magnetic field does not modify the biological response.
