Radiation variations over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are crucial for global climate and regional ecological environment. Previous radiation studies over the TP were widely based on ground and satellite ...

Patients with invasive breast cancer who had low scores on an investigational gene molecular signature had similar rates of local recurrence whether or not they received adjuvant radiation therapy ...

Researchers at Harvard released a new study Tuesday showing elevated radiation levels at fracking sites, saying the concerning levels could pose health risks to residents in the adjacent area. The ...

We analyzed two randomized trials of women with node-negative invasive breast cancer to ± RT following breast-conserving surgery: SweBCG91-RT (stage I-II, no adjuvant systemic therapy) and Princess ...

Radiation can be defined as energy traveling through space. There are two types of radiation, ionizing and non-ionizing, which are differentiated by how they interact with matter. Non-ionizing ...

More than half of people diagnosed with cancer have radiation therapy, which uses carefully targeted doses of high-energy radiation to kill cancer cells. Radiation oncologists are the highly trained ...

Radiation therapy, or radiotherapy, is a type of cancer treatment in which specialists kill cancerous cells in the body by exposing them to ionizing radiation, such as X-rays, gamma rays, high-energy ...

Doctors may use radiation therapy to treat benign tumors. Radiation can shrink and eliminate benign growths without doctors having to perform surgery. Benign tumors are noncancerous growths that can ...

The Nature Index tracks primary research articles from 145 natural-science and health-science journals, chosen based on reputation by an independent group of researchers. The Nature Index provides ...
