Fig. 4From: Proton and helium ion radiotherapy for meningioma tumors: a Monte Carlo-based treatment planning comparisonDose difference between the helium ions and proton dose predictions for patient A: the top panel displays the overdosage due to helium ions (i.e., the difference of 4He dose minus the proton dose), while the bottom panel shows the overdosage due to protons (i.e., 1H-4He). Colors represent the dose >3, >6, >9, >12, >15 and >18 Gy(RBE) (from blue to red), for a 54Gy(RBE) total treatment doseBack to article page
