Spatially Fractionated Radiation Treatment for Gynaecological Cancers

"Spatially fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT) enables delivery of high-dose radiation to discrete sub-volumes inside a tumour target while restricting the remainder of the target to a safer lower dose. This technique results in generation of intentionally heterogeneous dose distribution with spatial areas of hot and cold spots within the tumour, thereby sparing nearby organs at risk."
