New technology reduces the number of prostate cancer radiotherapy from 40 to 5

Release date: 2016-03-28


Australian scientists will test a new technology that can improve the accuracy of prostate cancer radiotherapy, reducing the number of radiotherapy patients with prostate cancer from 40 to 5.

According to the Hezhong News Agency, the experiment called TROG 15.01 SPARK can significantly reduce the number of reflex treatments in patients with prostate cancer.
Scientists point out that this latest technology, if successful in the treatment of prostate cancer, will likely be applied to other types of cancer treatment in the future.

Paul Keall, a professor at the University of Sydney, said that the "Kilovoltage Intrafraction Monitoring" (KIM) technology can make the dose of reflex therapy safer. Prostate cancer patients participating in the SPARK experiment will be completed within two weeks. Treatment of a course of treatment. This latest technology can improve the accuracy of prostate cancer radiotherapy, while reducing treatment time, thereby saving hospital workload and cost, and bringing benefits to patients and patients families.

The KIM system allows doctors to adjust the radiation beam during treatment to ensure the accuracy of the entire treatment process. Compared with the previous system, the system has the advantages of cheaper price and shorter treatment period. In addition to being used to treat prostate cancer, the system can be used to treat lung cancer, liver cancer, kidney cancer and pancreatic cancer.

Keall believes that this new Australian technology will become the global benchmark for care for many cancer patients.
