Researchers, led by The University of Texas at Austin and including international partners and TAU Systems Inc., have made a significant breakthrough in compact accelerator technology by developing a particle accelerator that is under 20 meters long and generates an electron beam with 10 billion electron volts (10 GeV) of energy. This advancement drastically reduces..
A groundbreaking study by the IAEA has found that a new radiotherapy technique for head and neck cancer could significantly shorten treatment times, especially beneficial for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This research, the largest of its kind, involved 12 centers across ten LMICs, including Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Philippines, South Africa, Thailand,..
Washington State University’s Veterinary Teaching Hospital has significantly advanced its cancer treatment capabilities by installing a new linear accelerator (LINAC). This state-of-the-art technology is set to revolutionize the way cancer is treated in pets, offering advanced radiation therapy that can not only prolong lives but potentially cure various cancers. Dr. Janean Fidel, a veterinary oncologist..
Dr. Julianne Santarosa, celebrating July Fourth on a boat in Texas, received unsettling news during a full-body MRI scan conducted by Prenuvo. Radiologists had identified a lung nodule, raising concerns about her health. Although she hadn’t experienced any pain or specific symptoms, she had a gut feeling to get the scan after seeing a Prenuvo..
In certain cancer cases, pinpointing the exact origin of the cancer is challenging, which complicates treatment decisions. Specific cancer treatments are tailored to different cancer types, and not knowing where the cancer originated from hinders treatment options. Fortunately, a collaboration between researchers at MIT and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute has unveiled a machine-learning model, named..
