Abstract

Tumor and healthy tissue samples were irradiated by 24 MeV protons. The samples were exposed to doses from 0 to 50 Gy and subsequently examined by Raman spectroscopy. The analysis of the intensity of characteristic peaks as a function of radiation dose exhibits different trends for the two types of tissue.
