Today’s radiation research is full of complexity and investigators have very diverse interests. Figuring out how to support novel research approaches is not a trivial task, especially when considering the full range of therapy techniques — from basic irradiation...
Dr. Gerald Fogarty and other clinicians recently collaborated on this piece in MedCrave, the International Journal of Radiology & Radiation Therapy. See the full article below.
Objectives Researchers in this study focused on inhibition of TGFB using small molecule inhibitor SM16. Methods The SARRP was used to treat orthotopic pancreatic tumors. They used CT contrast agent, lipuodol, to precisely target the tumor within the soft tissue and...
SARRP Highlighted in Alzheimer's Research Xstrahl’s Small Animal Radiation Research Platform (SARRP) was highlighted in a presentation at ASTRO 2020, the annual meeting of the American Society of Radiation Oncology. In a panel called “Expanding the Indications for...
Radiation therapy can be a great option for treating non-melanoma skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Radiation therapy is an alternative treatment option for those who are not good candidates for surgery, or who want to avoid pain...
Recently, Dr. Steven Davis shared his experience of using RADiant in Dermatology Times. See his piece below. Steven A Davis, M.D., is a board-certified dermatologist and Medical Director of the Dermatology & Laser Center of San Antonio.
In the study, Establishment of Microbeam Radiation Therapy at a Small Animal Irradiator, the dual focal spot and adjustable photon energy of the XenX x-ray tube allowed optimization of the beam parameters. SARRP’s chamber volume made the integration of a tungsten...
Orthovoltage X-rays, as offered by the Xstrahl 300, provides an excellent alternative to re-excision for incompletely resected or recurrent BCCs Surgery is the gold standard treatment for basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) but issues arise in the event of positive tumour...
