Abstract
The article discusses Intensity modulated proton therapy planning study for organ at risk sparing in rectal cancer re-irradiation. Topics discussed include absence of the low-dose-bath reduces excess dose to surrounding organs at risk (OAR); comparison of intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) with volumetric modulated arc photon therapy (VMAT); and data on reirradiation for rectal recurrence with proton therapy/.
