Evaluation of the consequences of low to moderate doses of ionizing radiation (IR) remains a societal challenge, especially for children exposed to CT scans. Appropriate experimental models are needed to improve scientific understanding of how exposure of the...
Xstrahl Medical, global leader in superficial radiotherapy devices to treat non-melanoma skin cancer and dermatological conditions, is featuring its RADiant treatment system at the annual American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) Annual Meeting in Chicago, IL...
Stereotactic body radiation therapy offers good lung local tumor control by the administration of a high dose per fraction in small volumes. Stereotactic body radiation therapy preclinical modeling is now possible, and in their paper “Lung Stereotactic Arc Therapy in...
With the rates of skin cancers ever increasing, especially in places with high sun prevalence, treatment of these conditions can cause not only a demand on resources, but there is a lack of unified response and the best way to treat. This is why Prof. Gerald Fogarty...
In their paper “Preclinical Evaluation of Dose-Volume Effects and Lung Toxicity Occurring In and Out-of-Field” Ghita M1, Dunne VL, McMahon SJ, Osman SO, Small DM, et al, aim to define the dose and dose-volume relationship of radiation-induced pulmonary toxicities...
October 3rd, 2019 Xstrahl and Washington DC-based C&C Irradiator Service are announcing a partnership to supply next generation X-ray irradiator systems to replace cesium sources across the U.S. Used throughout the world, with hundreds in the United States,...
Dosimety radiobiology experiemtns have long needed a viable and realistic mouse phantom. In their paper “Technical Note: Manufacturing of a realistic mouse phantom for dosimetry of radiobiology experiments.” Esplen N, Alyaqoub E & Bazalova-Carter M aim to design a...
Histone acetyltransferase 1 (Hat1) is responsible for the acetylation of newly synthesized histone H4 on lysines 5 and 12 during the process of chromatin assembly. To understand the broader biological role of Hat1, we have generated a conditional mouse knockout model...
In their paper “Characterization of a plastic scintillating detector for the Small Animal Radiation Research Platform (SARRP)” Johnstone CD, Therriault-Proulx F, Beaulieu L & Bazalova-Carter M aimed to characterize a small plastic scintillator developed for high...
