What Does ORPI Stand For?

ORPI stands for Off Resonance Proton Irradiation

Off Resonance Proton Irradiation (ORPI) is a specialized technique used in the field of proton therapy for cancer treatment. ORPI focuses on delivering protons to target tissues while minimizing the effects on surrounding healthy tissues by operating outside the resonance frequency of the protons. This approach enhances the precision and effectiveness of radiation therapy, offering potential advantages in tumor targeting and reducing collateral damage to adjacent organs, ultimately improving patient outcomes in oncological treatments.
