Alpha DaRT is a novel radiation technology that can treat recurrent, metastatic, and locally advanced cancers. What makes this new therapy unique among radiation therapies is that, for the first time, it employs alpha particles for treatment of solid tumors. Alpha DaRT treatment consists of intratumorally-inserted radionuclides that emit alpha particles which kill tumor cells, sparing healthy cells nearby. In comparison to existing radiation therapies, it is highly effective, safe, and tolerable for patients. Alpha DaRT can potentially fill a huge unmet need for treatment of advanced cancers that are resistant or have become refractory to prior conventional therapies such as X-rays and chemotherapy, and when surgery is not an option.

Research on integrated innovation of prefabricated floor product to improve quality and efficiency

Description

An innovative prefabricated concrete sandwich composite floor slab that integrates structural fire safety, energy-saving insulation, and building sound insulation functions. These sandwich laminated floor slabs offer high performance in terms of stiffness, thermal insulation, sound insulation, and fire resistance limit. Through integrated production in precast factories, the on-site construction process of precast floor panels can be reduced to solve the issues of complex insulation layer construction and the difficulty in controlling the construction quality of precast floor slabs. This innovation will improve building quality and performance, improve construction efficiency, reduce costs and operation and maintenance carbon emissions, and more fully leverage the advantages of construction industrialization.
