Anesthetic Oxygen Use and Sex Are Critical Factors in the FLASH Sparing Effect
Purpose: Ultra High Dose-Rate (UHDR) radiation has been reported to spare normal tissue, compared with Conventional Dose-Rate (CDR) radiation.However, important work remains to be done to improve the reproducibility of the FLASH effect.A better understanding of the biologic factors that modulate the FLASH effect may shed light on the mechanism of F
