DESCRIPTION:The IEEE Magnetics Toronto Section invites you to a seminar exp
 loring advancements in cancer treatment through the application of ultraso
 und-stimulated microbubbles (USMB) to enhance external beam radiotherapy. 
 Previous studies have demonstrated that USMBs can amplify radiotherapy eff
 ects by up to 40-fold\, offering significant promise for improving therape
 utic outcomes.\n\nThis presentation will focus on an ongoing phase I clini
 cal trial investigating USMBs as an adjunct to fractionated radiation ther
 apy in patients with locally advanced breast cancer and inoperable tumors 
 near the chest wall. Central to the trial is the Symphony MRI-guided FUS s
 ystem\, a pioneering technology developed by Arrayus Technologies. This sy
 stem integrates:\n\n- A large-aperture\, densely populated phased array fo
 r fully electronic beam steering.\n- Advanced MRI-guided spatial targeting
  with finely adjustable treatment contouring.\n- Real-time magnetic resona
 nce thermometry for precise monitoring and control.\n\nSpeaker(s): David A
