Скачать или смотреть Breakthrough in high-grade glioma cancer treatment | Dr. Arjun Sahgal on Spilling the RT

In this episode, Dr. Arjun Sahgal, an international clinical and research leader in the field of high-precision stereotactic radiation to the brain and spine for both metastases and primary tumors, as well as oligometastases and the chief of radiation oncology at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre’s Odette Cancer Centre, shares his excitement around the initial results of the UNITED (Unity-Based MR-Linac Guided Adaptive Radiotherapy for High Grade Glioma) trial. UNITED is the world’s first adaptive MR-guided radiotherapy study for patients with high-grade gliomas, the most common and aggressive primary brain tumors found in adults, and the highlight of his illustrious career so far.

Dr. Sahgal has made challenging the dogma and changing the standard of care for patients whose cancer is considered “incurable” his trademark. But what inspires him? Tune in to episode 2 of Spilling the RT to find out.
