First treatments date back to 1954 at the Lawrence Berkley Laboratory (LBL) and in Europe, ion beam therapy started in the mid-90ies at the Paul-Scherrer Institute (PSI) with protons and at the Helmholtz Center for Heavy Ion Research (GSI) with carbon ions followed by the Heidelberg Ion Therapy Center (HIT) in Heidelberg. This review describes the historical development of ion beam therapy in Germany based on the pioneering work at LBL and in the context of simultaneous developments in other countries as well as recent developments.}, subtyp = {Review Article}, keywords = {Beam scanning (Other) / Carbon ion therapy (Other) / Light ion beam therapy (Other) / Relative biological effectiveness (Other)}, cin = {E040}, ddc = {610}, cid = {I:(DE-He78)E040-20160331}, pnm = {315 - Bildgebung und Radioonkologie (POF4-315)}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-315}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, pubmed = {pmid:35101337}, doi = {10.1016/j.zemedi.2021.11.003}, url = {https://inrepo02.dkfz.de/record/178700}, }
