Comparison of proton and photon therapy in stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation for ventricular tachycardia
Proton therapy for STAR demonstrated significant potential for OARs sparing compared to photon therapy for VT, while maintaining equivalent target coverage. These findings highlight the potential of proton therapy to improve outcomes for VT patients.
