  schema:description "A review of why the depth at which a proton beam stops cannot be predicted exactly, and how much margin centres add for it. One common recipe, 3.5 per cent of the range plus 1 millimetre, overshoots by about 8 millimetres for a beam reaching 20 centimetres into soft tissue."@en ;
