Resumo

Este artigo de revisão apresenta um breve histórico, com os principais fatos da evolução da terapia com feixe de prótons, seguido de uma descrição das principais características dosimétricas apresentadas em faixas de energia utilizadas em terapia. É feita uma breve comparação entre a protonterapia e as demais modalidades de radioterapia com feixe de fótons. Também estão descritos alguns códigos de Monte Carlo atualmente utilizados na simulação do transporte de prótons no meio e suas peculiaridades.
