💪 Selbstwirksam aktiv gegen #RechteRaumnahme durch #Reichsbürger !

Unser Beratungsfall aus #Halsbrücke #Sachsen ist ein schönes Beispiel dafür, wie zivilgesellschaftliches Engagement gg #Rechtsextremismus in langfristiges, konstruktives Engagement für #Demokratie münden kann.

Cell-specific analysis of microglia following partial brain proton irradiation in mice In recent years, proton therapy has been established as a curative treatment for pediatric brain tumors and has demonstrated significant potential for adult brain tumors [1,2]. The advantage of proton...

After brain irradiation, microglia density increases with dose, more in the periventricular region. Correlation with contrast enhancementin MRI -- potential mechanism of brain necrosis. #RadOnc @hzdr.bsky.social @oncoalert.bsky.social

I’m SO delighted to finally see first STAR-TREC data reported 🤩 #ESTRO25

Short course RT vs chemorad for organ preservation in early stage rectal cancer

61% vs 80% TME-free survival at 12 months ➡️ More organ preservation with long-course chemorad!

RFK Jr. Orders Search for New Measles Treatments Instead of Urging Vaccination Decades of research have turned up no miracle treatment for measles, but studies show the M.M.R. shot is 97 percent effective in preventing the disease.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

This is currently the only plausible reason. We should not ignore that but find out if there are subgroups (what they tried and could not identify)

Birgitte Offersen showing the results of Skagen1 trial - hypofx vs conventional RT in high risk breast cancer patients with indication for lymphnode irradiation. Same side effects, same local control but worse survival. Due to lower RT dose? #ESTRO25 #RadOnk

At Sep 7th 1953 the first patient hast received radiotherapy with a linear accelerator.
Sept 7th, 2025 will be the world radiotherapy awareness day.
Safe and effektive treatment to cure cancer. Equal access worldwide still a problem.
