Causal modeling suggested elevated proton RBE for mandibular osteoradionecrosis
Causal modeling estimated mandibular proton RBE at 1.61, 1.30 and 1.13 at 40, 50 and 60 GyRBE, respectively

RBE
Carbon-ion Gy(RBE) values are not directly interchangeable between planning systems
Different carbon-ion RBE models can assign substantially different biological doses to the same absorbed-dose distribution, requiring context-specific translation.
Protons produced greater subclinical lung changes after breast nodal irradiation
Proton therapy produced greater CT-detected lung changes than photons despite lower lung dose and no increase in clinical pulmonary toxicity.
Review proposes harmonized reporting of biological dose across particle therapies
A translational review proposes shared reporting and quality-assurance principles for model-dependent biological dose in proton, carbon-ion and boron neutron capture therapy.
