Key Words Radiation therapy; Hepatocellular carcinoma; Proton beam therapy; X-ray therapy
Core Tip Radiation therapy (RT) is being increasingly utilized for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). As RT technology develops, proton beam therapy (PBT) has emerged as a method that affords dosimetric advantages compared with X-ray therapy due to its phy­sical properties, including lack of an exit dose along the beam path. Clinical experience with PBT for HCC is ac­cumulating rapidly, and the effectiveness and safety of PBT has been validated. In this review, we discuss the physical properties, current clinical data, technical issues, and future perspectives on PBT for the treatment of HCC.
