Introduction

Radiation Therapy is, along with surgery, the most effective therapeutic approach for the treatment of solid tumours.

Challenges in Radiation Therapy

Unfortunately, biological effects of radiation dose to healthy organs at risk (often surrounding targeted tumour mass) represent a major dose-limiting constraint in Radiation Therapy. This implies that tumours cannot always be successfully treated, as delivered dose might not be enough for an effective treatment, decreasing survival of these cancer patients.

LIACFLASH System

LIACFLASH is an IOeRT system for cancer treatment built on a breakthrough scientific discovery: the FLASH effect.

Benefits of the FLASH Effect

The FLASH effect enables:

  1. Delivery of high radiation dose
  2. Significantly reduced associated radiocytotoxicity
  3. Efficient tumour killing

This advancement widens the therapeutic window.
