Therapy

This consists of increasing the excitation of target elements (I, cis-Pt) by directing the energy of X-ray beams around their absorption threshold.  These elements will return to the fundamental state after having re-emitted photons and particles that contribute to the destruction of malignant cells.  Spectacular results have already been obtained with glial tumors in rats.

This is a technique of irradiation by a large number of very intense microbeams.  It seems to be much less traumatic for surrounding healthy tissues than treatment with a uniform beam, thus facilitating the reconstruction of irradiated healthy tissue.
