Experimental investigation of oxygen diffusion in the peak and valley region of minibeam patterns during x‐ray irradiation
A novel way of simultaneously measuring oxygen in the peak and valley of the MB dose pattern was introduced. The observed oxygen depletion saturation and diffusion between the peaks and valleys suggest the importance of oxygen in spatially fractionated radiotherapy studies, which is even greater for 5 mM glutathione compared to water.
