None
From the distal to the proximal edge of the target volume, each defined layer is
scanned by the proton beam (or painted) once. The prescribed dose is delivered
completely for each spot in the target in just one scanning operation.
This type means that PBS is delivered without any repainting.
Identification
This repainting type is labelled PBS in the (Delivery) Technique fields on the
adaPTprescribe and adaPTdeliver screens.
Representation
This repainting type is represented by an icon on adaPTdeliver screens.

Graph
Figure 22-2 illustrates the energy that is delivered in each layer. A graph similar to this
one appears on adaPTdeliver screens.
