RESUMO
Glioma is the most common primary malignant brain tumor. Surgery combined with postoperative radiotherapy is the standard treatment, but the outcome is unsatisfactory. Currently, proton and carbon ion, the most advanced radiotherapy technology, offer substantial clinical advantages over the conventional photon therapy in multiple tumors. However, the effect of proton and carbon ion radiotherapy in glioma has not been clarified clearly. This article will elaborate on the basic research and clinical outcomes of proton and carbon ion radiotherapy for glioma.
