Despite remarkable advances, radiation therapy (RT) remains inefficient for some bulky tumors, radioresistant tumors, and certain pediatric tumors. Minibeam radiation therapy (MBRT) has emerged as a promising approach, reducing normal tissue toxicity while enhancing immune responses. [...]

Motion of lung tumors during radiotherapy leads to decreased accuracy of the delivered dose distribution. This is especially true for proton radiotherapy due to the finite range of the proton beam. [...]
