Modeling absorbed alpha particle dose from diffusing alpha‐emitters radiation therapy in changing tissue volumes
These results indicate that tissue swelling and shrinkage can have a non-negligible effect on the tumor absorbed dose. Further study of tissue dynamics during Alpha-DaRT treatment will be necessary for improvements in dosimetry practice.
