Abstract
To the Editor: Abratt’s letter needs a response. We are currently – or have been directly – involved in treating patients with fast neutrons for decades; some with more than 20 years’ experience in proton therapy, and others working at major hospitals with modern, highend facilities for radiotherapy with photons and electrons.
