Biophysical modeling of low‐energy ion irradiations with NanOx
We reported in this work an extension of the NanOx biophysical model to consider irradiations with low-energy ions, such as the ones found in TAT and BNCT. The excellent agreement observed at intermediate and high energies between the original hadrontherapy implementation and the present one showed that NanOx offers a consistent, self-integrated framework for describing the biological effects induced by ion irradiations. Future work will focus on the application of the latest version of NanOx to cases closer to the clinical setting.
