Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix is a rare and aggressive subtype of cervical cancer, typically resistant to conventional radiotherapy and lacking dedicated treatment guidelines. Read a case report in press now with IJPT that suggests a carbon ion radiotherapy boost is feasible, safe, and achieves long-term local control: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2331518025004639

Welcome to the only journal specializing in particle therapy.

We are the official journal of the Particle Therapy Cooperative Group, providing a preferred venue for disseminating the most up-to-date information on the clinical, physical, and biological research in proton, light-ion, and heavy charged-particle therapy. Since 2014, we are the only journal that specializes in particle therapy, a unique subject of growing interest to health researchers as the number of particle facilities increases internationally.
