Optimization of combined proton–photon treatments

Proton treatment slots are a limited resource. Therefore, we consider combined proton–photon treatments in which most fractions are delivered with photons and only a few with protons. We demonstrate how both modalities can be combined to optimally capitalize on the proton's ability to reduce normal tissue dose.
