What I learned in 🇨🇱 today … $5mill = one #radiotherapy machine☢️, can treat 10k patients. $5mill = 135 patients worth of trastuzumab. 🧐
The Lancet Oncology - tinyurl.com/6bry9a2a “an essential pillar in multi-D oncology…an inexpensive modality” - 👏🏽 well said Targeting Cancer

Utilizing Genomics and Radiomics to escalate radiotherapy in Sarcoma (HEAT), will offer insight to the innate and heterogenous radiosensitivity of STS, bringing us a step closer to a personalized treatment approach for this disease.

I finally read CROSSFIRE (IRE vs. MRI-guided SBRT after chemo in locally advanced pancreas cancer) in detail.

There are a few issues. Brief thread.

There is a CNS Radiation Oncology faculty position available, Moffitt main site (Magnolia Campus), with a footprint at the upcoming Speros Proton Therapy facility.

Please message me for details or if interested.

Prostate HDR Brachytherapy/Rectal Hydrogel workshop kick-off was HUGE success, providing hands-on training to residents/fellow! It also marked significant milestone with >1500 HDR Prostate cases Moffitt Cancer Center. Thx Kosj Yamoah MD, PhD, Dan Fernandez, Arash Naghavi, Boston Scientific for their support!

Everyone I spoke too .. many by texts and some by phone… afraid for family and friends . Many feel alone and abandoned. This speech hits home so much.
