SP-0008: Clinical validation of autocontouring tools
not received SP-0011 Austron origin of today's ion beam setting in Europe R. Potter Medical University of Vienna, Department of Radiation Oncology and Christian Doppler Laboratory for Medical Research in Radiation Oncology, Vienna, Austria In today’s radiation oncology practice, particle beam therapy with protons and/or light ions is considered as a highly innovative and promising dose delivery method. Several cyclotron based proton centers are in clinical operation in Europe and worldwide. However, for accelerating light ions for medical purposes the (accelerator) physics community preferred a synchrotron based solution. Light ions such as carbon ions offer the advantage of a higher biological effectiveness -
