FLASH-radiotherapy may provide significant sparing of healthy tissue through ultra-high dose rates in protons, electrons, and x-rays while maintaining the tumor control. Key factors for the FLASH ...
A research team has made a significant breakthrough in cancer radiotherapy by identifying conditions under which carbon ion beams -- delivered at ultra-high dose rates (uHDR) -- can protect normal ...
Ultra-high dose rate (UHDR) irradiation has been shown to have a sparing effect on healthy tissue, an effect known as ‘FLASH’. This effect has been studied across several radiation modalities, ...
