Development and validation of cost-effective multi-sample hypoxia chambers for proton ultra-high dose rate organoid irradiations

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology
The tissue sparing of ultra-high dose rate irradiation has been partially observed in vitro while controlling oxygen levels. Here, we developed a hypoxia system for high-throughput irradiations that accommodates embedded 3D cultures, such as organoids ...

Ultra-High-Dose Rate FLASH Radiotherapy

Ultra-High-Dose Rate (UHDR) FLASH radiotherapy is an emerging modality that has demonstrated the potential to revolutionize cancer treatment by delivering radiation doses at rates several orders of magnitude higher than conventional therapies. This chapter offers a comprehensive overview of the FLASH effect, a phenomenon wherein ultra-rapid dose ...

Low-dose-rate induces more severe cognitive impairment than high-dose-rate in rats exposed to chronic low-dose γ-radiation

Frontiers in Public Health
BackgroundOwing to the long penetration depth of gamma (γ)-rays, individuals working in ionizing radiation environments are chronically exposed to low-dose γ-radiation, resulting in cognitive changes.

Adjuvant high dose rate brachytherapy for soft tissue sarcomas: initial experience report

Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy, 2011
Purpose: Adjuvant high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDRBT) offers advantages over low dose rate brachytherapy (LDRBT), although there are little data on local tumor control and treatment related toxicity. We report outcome in patients with primary, recurrent,

Effects of ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy with different fractions and dose rate on acute and chronic lung injury in mice

Heliyon
Ultra-high dose rate radiotherapy (FLASH radiation) can naturally render normal tissues around the tumor tissue resistant to radiotherapy. In contrast, the tumor tissue remains sensitive to radiation under the same conditions.
