Congenital brain vascular malformations are a common cause of stroke and death in young patients. This project aims to develop a new treatment for these lesions that does not require surgery. We will use focussed radiation to change the cells lining the abnormal vessels so that they can be targeted with a new treatment that causes blockage of the vessels and prevents haemorrhage.

先天性脑血管畸形是年轻患者中风和死亡的常见原因。该项目旨在开发一种不需要手术的治疗这些病变的新方法。我们将使用聚焦辐射来改变排列在异常血管内的细胞，这样它们就可以通过一种新的治疗方法进行靶向治疗，从而导致血管堵塞并防止出血。
