RTU Physicist Studies Ways to Shorten Radiotherapy Duration in Cancer Treatment
Kristaps Paļskis, a medical physicist at Riga Technical University, is researching how to combine three innovative approaches in cancer treatment. The aim is to treat tumours faster and more effectively.
In cancer treatment, it is essential to target a tumour as precisely as possible while sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. Kristaps Paļskis, a medical physicist at Riga Technical University (RTU), is studying this challenge.
His research focuses on whether three innovative directions in cancer therapy could be brought together. Such an approach could make it possible to treat tumours faster and more effectively than at present.
The work also looks at the possibility of reducing the duration of radiotherapy, as well as other potential improvements in the future.
The source text does not specify which three directions are involved or what the results of the research are.
