The effects of cell displacement on DNA damages in targeted radiation therapy using Geant4-DNA

Abstract Charged particle radiation can, directly and indirectly, affect cells by breaking DNA strands. This effect includes DNA single-strand breaks (SSB) and DNA double-strand breaks (DSB), which may cause cell death and mitotic failure. Thus, using short-range charged particles such as Auger elec...
