Interdisciplinary approaches for oncological treatmentsČater, Maša (Avtor) proton therapyphysicscancerThe inspiration for writing this editorial came from a recent visit to the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN, Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) in Geneva. There I had the opportunity to take a closer look at the technology of proton production and acceleration in cyclotrons. I was impressed by this direct insight into physical findings that have an impact on many other scientific fields. I learned how these scientific discoveries are used in medicine, especially in oncology, and how this interdisciplinary approach can improve patients' lives. This experience gave me a new perspective and encouraged me to research and write about this important and innovative field. In the following, we will explore how proton therapy has changed the way and success of treatments in oncology and how the interdisciplinary collaboration between physics and medicine has contributed to this progress. In addition, I have focused on the relevance of this technology to veterinary medicine and the potential it offers for improving cancer treatment in our pets.20242024-06-20 13:30:11Članek v reviji158801UDK: 616ISSN pri članku: 2385-8761DOI: 10.26873/SVR-1957-2024COBISS_ID: 192288003sl
