From assisted to dominant radiation therapy, it subverts the tradition of tumor therapy.

Dr. Zhang Xiao, President of Varian China, gave a keynote speech at the just-concluded 8th Health China Forum. "
from the perspective of the whole healthy China,
in China
mainly we face
disease
or cancer, tumor is the number one killer in urban and rural areas in China, urban mortality rate is about 17% higher than rural." There are a variety of theories about the causes of cancer, but age is still the biggest factor in terms of cancer incidence, with cancer rates over 50 exceeding 80 percent of cancer rates, and more than 1 percent of the population over 60 having the potential for cancer.
and from the whole country, with the increase of medical level and change sourlife, the degree of aging is getting higher and higher. The acceleration of urbanization itself has also led to a series of changes in our living environment and way of life, which on the other hand have stimulated more cancer cases, with one person diagnosed with cancer every six minutes a day.
at present, China's cancer five-year survival rate lags far behind some western developed countries, to the United States, for example, cancer five-year survival rate is more than 2 times. Why are we so different from other countries, especially the developed countries in the West? Mainly in our treatment of cancer, especially in the radiation treatment of cancer.Dr.
, according to Dr. Zhang Xiao, according to the World Health Organization and the National Cancer Alliance clinical practice guidelines, 70 percent of cancer patients should receive radiation treatment, compared with the current ability to treat only 16 percent of the year.
from the social level, according to the 2004 World Health Organization recommendations, every million people should need radiation therapy equipment up to 3 to 4, the United Kingdom 3.4, the United States 8.2, France 5, our country is generally 0.97. In addition to the equipment, there is another reason for our lack of professionals.
three major cancer treatments, one is surgery, one is radiation, one is chemotherapy, surgery can cure about 27% of patients, radiation therapy can cure about 22% of patients, the number of chemotherapy about 2 to 3%. With the development of science and technology, radiation therapy is generally considered to be a recognized treatment for early lung cancer, especially nasopharyngeal cancer, cervical cancer and so on.earlier this
, Chinese radiotherapists published in The Lancet, the world's leading medical journal, for the first time proposed clinical effects of radiation therapy on non-small cell early cancers, with significant improvements in both secondary recurrence and surgical survival.
and it is precisely because of the emergence of radiosurgery that we can really carry out non-invasive cancer treatment, while Taiwan hospitals successfully carried out more than 4000 cases of liver cancer radiation therapy, radiation therapy from the past auxiliary treatment into the dominant treatment, subverting a lot of cancer treatment tradition. If the treatment is carried out for about 8 to 12 minutes, up to once a day, up to five times, after continuous treatment basically no side effects, no knife, hospitalization and bed, quality of life will be greatly improved, treatment costs are also within acceptable range.
