Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Micro beam radiation therapy (MRT) allows for extremely high-dose irradiation. However, the toxicity of MRT in central nervous system (CNS) is still unknown. We evaluated mortality in normal mice following CNS-targeted MRT. MRT using synchrotron X-ray beam was performed using BL28B2 beam-line at the SPring-8 facility. Fifty percent lethal dose by the 300 micrometer spacing MRT was 600 Gy. Our results indicated that the MRT enable to deliver extremely high doses without loss of normal brain function. Our results suggest that normal tissue damage in MRT is related to the valley dose in regardless of the peak dose and peak valley dose ratio.
