11 paź 2024 · Scientists used a beam of radioactive carbon-11 ions to treat a tumor (region circled in red) in a mouse. Red colors indicate where most of the ions stopped and decayed, as measured by PET scan.
Heavy ion therapy can deliver high doses with high precision. However, image guidance is needed to reduce range uncertainty. Radioactive ions are potentially...
4 lip 2024 · Ion-beam radiotherapy is an advanced cancer treatment modality offering steep dose gradients and a high biological effectiveness. These gradients make the therapy vulnerable to patient-setup...
9 lis 2022 · The highly adaptable Linac Image-Guided Hadron Technology (LIGHT) accelerator developed by ADAM, AVO’s Geneva-based subsidiary, provides a proton beam allowing the delivery of ultra-high dose rates to deep-seated tumours.
8 lis 2022 · However, during the 2022 revision of Japan's health insurance payments, the evidence presented strongly suggested that particle therapy, including ion beam therapy, was superior to photon therapy for common cancers, including large liver cancer and locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
6 kwi 2024 · Since the pioneering use of planar X-ray imaging in early experimental sites of proton and light ion cancer therapy, imaging has always been a cornerstone of ion beam therapy (IBT). This contribution highlights current trends and future perspectives of imaging in modern IBT.
8 lut 2019 · Some people think it can. They claim that these lamps emanate negative ions which boost your serotonin levels, improving mood, alertness, anxiety, and even depression.
