CARE Pre-Dose Therapy

Standard Treatment

Conclusions (1)Improve Effectiveness of Radiation Therapy (higher dose/session) (2)Reduce Treatment Duration (3)Reduce bad side effects from treatment (more healthy cells survive) (4) Reduce probability of Follow-On Cancer (caused by treatment itself) (5) Radiation Worker and First Responder Protection
