Bridging the gap with our small-animal radiation research platform

In this paper we tried to mimic the standard-of-care for the treatment of glioblastoma in patients using an animal model. For radiation treatment, three non-coplanar arcs were used to deliver a high dose to the tumor and a minimal dose to the surrounding healthy tissue, using a preclinical radiation research platform. Our approach was a major step forward in bridging the gap between preclinical and clinical radiation research.
