Abstract
Purpose: To integrate dose-averaged linear energy transfer (LET
Methods: An open-source proton planning platform (OpenREGGUI) has been modified to incorporate LET
Results: With similar dose distributions, the efficacy of spatially optimizing LET
Conclusion: This work demonstrates the feasibility and significant advantages of using SPArc for LET
