About

The study aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of proton therapy on quality of life and long-term normal tissue toxicities of the pediatric cancer patients. Based on these results, the predictive model of long-term normal tissue toxicities, survival, and quality of life could be recognized. Risk-adapted treatment strategy based on the predictive model in pediatric cancer patients could be established.
