超高剂量率放射治疗是一种治疗肿瘤的新方法。较高剂量的放射治疗与肿瘤周围健康组织的创伤有关，而FLASH放射治疗显示出对健康组织的保护作用，而不影响抗肿瘤作用。牛津大学牛津放射肿瘤学研究所的Kristoffer Petersson博士与合作者Joseph D. Wilson、Ester M. Hammond和Geoff S. Higgins一起审查了有关FLASH放疗的现有数据及其在治疗癌症方面的临床潜力。
Ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) radiotherapy is a new way of treating tumours caused by cancer. Higher doses of radiotherapy are associated with trauma to the healthy tissue surrounding the tumour, whereas FLASH radiotherapy demonstrates a sparing effect of the healthy tissues without compromising the anti-tumour action. Dr Kristoffer Petersson at the Oxford Institute for Radiation Oncology, University of Oxford, along with collaborators Joseph D. Wilson, Ester M. Hammond and Geoff S. Higgins, review the available data on FLASH radiotherapy and its clinical potential in the treatment of cancer.
