With skin cancer being the most common type of cancer in the USA the need for an effective and versatile treatment method is a necessity for many skin cancer centers. The Xstrahl 100 is perfectly suited for the treatment of superficial skin cancers, as used by the...
The radiosensitizing efficacy of gold is well established, however, there remain several significant barriers to the successful clinical translation of nano-sized gold particles (AuNPs). These barriers include: retaining stability in relevant biological sera,...
Minibeam radiation therapy (MBRT) is an innovative synchrotron radiotherapy technique able to shift the normal tissue complication probability curves to significantly higher doses. However, its exploration was hindered due to the limited and expensive beamtime at...
Many radiotherapy research centers have recently installed novel research platforms enabling the investigation of the radiation response of tumors and normal tissues in small animal models, possibly in combination with other treatment modalities. Many more research...
BACKGROUND: Preclinical radiation biology has become increasingly sophisticated due to the implementation of advanced small animal image guided radiation platforms into laboratory investigation. These small animal radiotherapy devices enable state-of-the-art image...
INTRODUCTION: Combined immune checkpoint blockade has led to rare autoimmune complications, such as fatal myocarditis. Recent approvals of several anti-programmed death 1 (anti-PD-1) drugs for lung cancer treatment prompted ongoing clinical trials that directly...
Xstrahl’s radiotherapy systems can be used to treat benign skin disorders, such as keloids, which usually demonstrate a high recurrence rate. To date, there has been no single, standardized modality agreed upon to produce the best results in the treatment of these...
The consequences of low to moderate doses of ionizing radiation (IR), especially for children exposed to CT scans, remains a challenging scientific topic. So far, no proper experimental models are available to better comprehend the consequences of exposure of the...
Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSC) are the most commonly diagnosed cancers in the world. Despite their relatively low malignant potential and mortality rate, NMSC are associated with a high morbidity and substantial treatment cost, and they significantly affect patient...
