In this webinar, Dr. Rebecca Oberley-Deegan, from the University of Nebraska, discusses a new technique developed on the SARRP to generate high quality images for measuring orthotopic prostate cancer in mice. This user-led event highlights the work performed and the...
SmART-XPS is a Monte Carlo based Treatment Planning Software developed and optimised for use on the SARRP platform. This webcast focuses on the intuitive yet advanced irradiation planning capabilities for the Xstrahl SARRP and highlights the roadmap for 2025 of new...
Xstrahl in Action Advances in conformal radiotherapy (RT) techniques and image-guidance have significantly reduced organs at risk (OAR) exposure, which has been associated with improved safety profiles. However, opportunities remain to further optimise treatments...
Xstrahl in Action In radiology, low X-ray energies (<140 keV) are used to obtain an optimal image while in radiotherapy, higher X-ray energies (MeV) are used to eradicate tumor tissue. In radiation research, both these X-ray energies are being used to extrapolate...
One of seven of Cancer Research UK’s (CRUK) Centres of Excellence in Radiotherapy Research, the CRUK RadNet Centre Glasgow includes three core laboratory teams of radiation researchers who work within the RadNet initiative to incentivize and encourage other...
While SARRP is often used to investigate the effect of radiation therapy in preclinical oncology settings, it should be noted that the impact of radiation on normal tissues requires understanding and further research to mitigate both early and late effects. The use of...
Xstrahl in Action Researchers developed guidance on how and what to report in regard to dosimetry in radiation research.Publication Minimum reporting standards should be expected for preclinical radiobiology irradiators and dosimetryAuthors François Trompier, Larry A....
Xstrahl in Action A recent study aimed to characterize a detection system based on inorganic scintillators and determine its suitability for dosimetry in preclinical radiation research, using our Small Animal Radiation Research Platform (SARRP).Publication...
Xstrahl in Action Pelvic radiotherapy (RT) can cause debilitating bladder toxicities. In the recent study, researchers sought methods to protect against and alleviate RT-induced late bladder injury.Publication Prevention of radiation-induced bladder injury: A murine...
