The Xstrahl Small Animal Radiation Research Platform (SARRP) has been developed for conformal micro irradiation with on-board cone beam CT guidance. The graphics processing unit (GPU)-accelerated [...]

Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is a non-contact, optical imaging technique based on measurement of emitted light due to an internal source, which is often directly related to cellular activity. It [...]

Radiation-induced gastrointestinal syndrome (RIGS) results from the acute loss of intestinal stem cells (ISC), impaired epithelial regeneration, and subsequent loss of the mucosal barrier, [...]

The radiosensitizing efficacy of gold is well established, and has often been tested on Xstrahl systems, such as investigated in the Xstrahl in Action: Gold nanoparticles as dose-enhancement [...]

Combined radiotherapy and hyperthermia offer great potential for the successful treatment of radio-resistant tumours through thermo-radiosensitization. Tumour response heterogeneity, due to [...]

There have been a growing number of studies combining radiotherapy with immunotherapy to enhance both local and metastatic tumor cell kill leveraging the immune-mediated abscopal effect. This [...]
