Using the Proton Energy Spectrum and Microdosimetry to Model Proton Relative Biological Effectiveness.

Purpose: We introduce a methodology to calculate the microdosimetric quantity dose-mean lineal energy for input into the microdosimetric kinetic model (MKM) to model the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of proton irradiation experiments.Methods and Materials: The data from 7 individual proton...
