SCINTIX A very intresting treatment mode

In a meeting of peer support volunteers yesterday, we were told that this machine will be installed at our facility in June.

  1. Hi . This is very interesting. I wasn't, however, able to locate research results for this method of treatment delivery (note: there is research and it was presented at a conference discussed here: https://apnews.com/article/technology-science-health-business-hayward-ff1297b6d09f4cba8c1436cff974f4d3. I just don't know where these papers are available). That said, the description of the technology being able to target the particular emission signature of the cancer cells could be a game changer. One thing I will note is that the FDA approval is for bone and lung tumors. So, for now, when it comes to prostate cancer, this would only apply to metastatic cancer.
