Zusammenfassung

Die Therapie mit Ionenstrahlen bietet, abhängig von der Ionensorte, physikalische sowie biologische Vorteile. Für einige Tumorarten konnte hierbei schon eine klinische Überlegenheit gezeigt werden. Eine Reihe von Studienprotokollen für verschiedene Indikationsbereiche hat bereits die Rekrutierung begonnen. Hierbei soll der Stellenwert der Partikeltherapie in der modernen Radioonkologie erarbeitet werden.

Abstract

Ion beam therapy offers both physical and biological advantages, depending on the type of ion beam used. Its clinical superiority could already be demonstrated for some tumour types. A series of study protocols for various indication areas have already started recruiting with the aim of determining the value of particle therapy in modern radiation oncology.
