Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Targeted neuromodulation of spinal interneurons enhances breathing in chronic spinal cord injury

Neurobiology of Disease
Respiratory dysfunction is a debilitating consequence of cervical spinal cord injury (cSCI) with few available treatment options. Restoring function in the chronic phase is challenging due to the limited regenerative capacity of the adult central nervous
