The Linac-MR is being hailed a medical breakthrough that can do an MRI and radiation at the same time — providing the world's most advanced radiation therapy for cancer tumours.
Usmani said he became involved in the last five years as the process, which involved over 70-peer reviewed scientific papers on solving the physics and engineering, got closer to clinical trials.
The LMR can treat any type of cancer in the body and allows oncologists to deliver more precise radiation to tumours that move during treatment, or to tumours that are close to healthy organs that need to be avoided.“We are hopeful that we can offer treatments that we currently can’t do,” Usmani said, explaining illnesses like pancreatic cancers are one type that usually struggle with traditional radiation.
“Because we can treat many tumors more effectively, more precisely with this type of technology, and it’s not limited to one treatment site,” Usmani said.Edmonton couple plans for perfect proposal after terminal cancer diagnosis: ‘If you want to marry them — marry them’
