Unchanged perfusion in normal-appearing white and grey matter of glioma patients nine months after proton beam irradiation

Conclusion: The perfusion in normal-appearing brain tissue remained unaltered after proton beam therapy. In further studies, a direct comparison with changes after photon therapy is recommended to confirm the different effect of proton therapy on the normal-appearing tissue.PMID:36801809 | DOI:10.1080/0284186X.2023.2176254
