💡 Fun physics fact: With 20 g of Cobalt, you can treat patients during 5 years on Leksell Gamma Knife, when you need 14 kilograms of Cobalt for a single electric car. Dear network, Under no circumstances should you miss the latest episode of the Rad Chat podcast featuring my colleague Dr. Riccardo Bevilacqua. On the agenda: radiation safety and physics applied to cancer treatment. This episode includes an exciting and informative section on brain treatments by radiosurgery using Gamma Knife, and how Cobalt 60 is the superpower of the Leksell Gamma Knife, offering unmatched precision and safety for patients. This episode not only demystifies Cobalt 60 but also reminds us that the use of Cobalt 60 is a patient-centered choice, minimizing extracranial dose delivery to the patient more effectively than any other technical approach. What a privilege to work alongside such brilliant people in such a fascinating field.
