Description

Michele Fiore and a large team report on focused radiation care for older patients with pancreatic cancer. Their paper is from two thousand twenty-four. This cancer has a poor outlook and is often found in the old, who may not bear surgery or drug care well. The method sends high-dose rays to a small zone in just five sessions.

They track how long patients live with no spread, no local growth, and no far spread. Local control stays high for the first years, and mid values for the other spans run past two years. Harm rates are low, both soon after care and later. The method looks safe and strong for this group.
