Harnessing 3D imagery for early tumour detection

The European Union-funded research project ENTERVISION is developing a new way of harnessing radiotherapy, using 3D digital imagery, to provide earlier tumour detection and more effective treatments.
The project team has created a prototype camera that ensures real-time positioning of the radiation beam onto the exact location of the tumour. “This is only one of the tools that we are developing for greater precision,” says Manjit Dosanjh, ENTERVISION’s project coordinator and Life Sciences Advisor at CERN in Meyrin, Switzerland.
