Peculiarities of carbon ion RBE and implications – RBE-dependence on dose – Plan MUs not scalable any longer! – RBE not constant: How to come up with a robust multi- beam plan? – SFU(B)D only applicable for single beam per fraction (NIRS)! – D RBE,LEM-I ≠ D RBE,NIRS , conversion of treatment protocols needed! Is always approximate! – Approximations and shortcomings in clinical RBE- models Fossati et al. (2012), PMB
