This chapter describes the state-of-art of synchrotron radiation therapies in the treatment of radioresistant tumors. The tolerance of the surrounding healthy tissue severely limits the achievement of a curative treatment for some brain tumors, like gliomas. This restriction is especially important in ...
There is a dual aspect to the field of medical applications of synchrotron radiation. First there are the important in-vitro programs such as structural biology, x-ray microscopy, and radiation cell biology. Second there are the programs that are ultimately targeted at in-vivo applications. The ...
The Medical Applications of Synchrotron Radiation conference beings together researchers using synchrotron-based techniques to improve understanding, diagnosis and treatment of diseases. This international, triennial conference is an interdisciplinary forum for sharing the latest research and developments in synchr...

14 It is particularly well suited to medical and public health applications and like that adopted by ICRP for general purposes. It has also been used by WHO [11], [13], [14], [15]. Table 1. The pragmatic ethics value set used* Dignity/Autonomy Of the individual Non-maleficence/...
Within an hadrontherapy center the particle accelerator is the key element; it is the center of operation clinical and it defines unequivocally the overall technological performance because it has an impact on the quality of the radiation treatments produced. For this reason, even if the machine re...
