2 Hadrons since Hadrontherapy elettrons e Alternatives: hadrons are made by quarks Atom heavy particles radiotherapy particle therapy... Carbon neutrontherapy, ions = 6 protons + 6 neutrons protontherapy CIRT (Carbon... Protons Ionor RT),. Neutrons quark u or d
3 Electrons (X-rays): Carbon ion is times heavier than electron Nucleo più semplice: il protone p n Nucleus of Carbon made of 6 protons (p) and 6 neutrons (n) Simplest nucleus: the proton (p) Proton is 2000 times heavier than electron

6 Carbon Ions First patients treated in 1975 at Bevalac, Berkeley, CA, even ion properties were well know since the beginning of years patients treated with helium ions and 500 with neon ions in 20 years (Sweet W RS, NEJM, 1951) Since 1994 in Japan the first patient treated with carbon ions

32 The utilization rate for PBRT was extremely low compared with that of conventional RT The number of pediatric patients accounted for only 9.7% of the overall treatments, as opposed to the number of adults with prostate cancer, which represented 55.4% of the overall treatments IMRT had a 10-fold increase for all patients, and a 18-fold increase for prostate cancer In the current enviroment the use of PBRT has likely had little impact on national expenditures on cancer care, but as the number of facilities continues to rise, utilization rates are to change in a population of more than 100 million patients..
